We're specifying gnu99 in AM_CFLAGS, so I wouldn't expect it to end up 
in LD_FLAGS. This is benign, so I'm not sure it's worth spending time on 
fixing that.

We had an issue with some versions of MinGW [1] and cygwin [2] shipping 
with headers using anonymous unions, which is a GNU99 extension not 
found in C99.
