Looks even better!

Thank you everyone for taking a look at this.
Here is version 2:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dholmes/8224087/webrev.v2/
Changes:
- set c99 rather than gnu99
- Volker's change for xlc to match gcc and clang
- added short note to build doc (can do wiki later)
- cosmetic change of name to make variable based on other feedback
during the C++14 discussion
Thanks,
David

webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dholmes/8224087/webrev/
The need to remove a for-loop declaration expression to appease gcc
4.8 annoyed me enough to investigate setting C99 as our minimum allow
C-language level when compiling. It turned out to be a lot more
complex a situation than I thought due to toolchain quirks. See lots
of details in the bug report.
To summarise the changes:
- gcc: force to -std=gnu99
- clang force to -std=gnu99
- Solaris studio - no effective change
- Visual Studio - no change
- xlc - no effective change (but we use the explicit flag rather than
accepting it as default)
I've checked how this works with all the toolchains except xlc as I
have no access to that. Some assistance from someone who can verify
the correctness on xlc would be appreciated.
Thanks,
David
