Why do you think I would dispute that? It obviously enables less. If you
manage to find some compiler options / defines / code changes that make
MPlayer compile reliably with -std=c99 on the majority of systems I have
nothing against using them. I just think it is nontrivial to actually
make that happen. What you quoted above certainly isn't enough.
