That isn't true; as part of the C++11 support Visual Studio is getting, Microsoft is implementing more of C99 language support.

To quote the blog post the other person mentioned:

...the RTM version will also include a few tactical C99 language extensions when compiling C code...

You can thank the C++11 committee for that; they worked to bring the C11 standard into the fold with C++11.

It's going to become increasingly difficult for curmudgeonly vendors to refuse to support C11 if they support C++11.
