As far as I can see I have 2 options:
- Port the code to the c++11 standard - but you seem to think that's a bad idea
- Compile this plugin with C99 - that's the solution I have in the git
at the moment but I get the warning "cc1plus: warning: command line
option ‘-std=c99’ is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++ [enabled by
default]" and call me pedantic but I don't like warnings!

C99 is a *C* language standard, not a C++ language standard. There seems to be some confusion here over what language the code you're trying to compile really is.

Is it C? Then C99 is appropriate but need a few tweaks. c++11 would not be appropriate.

Is it C++? Then C++11 is an option but is also relatively new, and so may or may not be appropriate. C99 is not appropriate for C++ code.
