-std=c99 doesn't fly, throws errors on (gcc-specific) asm.
So we have to use -std=gnu99.

Tried to do that tree-wide by patching configure but got build errors
then (somewhere in iscsi code).

With the wide char curses patches by samuel applied I get errors like
this one:

/home/kraxel/projects/qemu/ui/curses.c:627:18: error: universal
character names are only valid in C++ and C99 [-Werror]
             case L'\u23bd':
                  ^

I'm open to better ideas to handle this.

Failing that I can cut+paste this reply into the commit message to
clarify things.

cheers,
  Gerd
