Microsoft don't ship a C compiler

Adding C99 features to their C++ compiler would be nice be probably not cost effective for them

Sure they do, it's bundled with their C++ compiler. cl.exe will happily turn on C90 mode and compile files as C, not C++, if you supply the /TC option or your source files have the .c extension.
