There’s a regression with the following code in gnutls:

AS_CASE([$ac_prog_cc_stdc],
  [c11 | c99], [AC_DEFINE([C99_MACROS], 1, [C99 macros are supported])],
  [AC_MSG_WARN([[Compiler does not support C99. It may not be able to compile 
the project.]])]
)

With master, that check now fails and the compilation changes.

I’m not qualified to determine if the check in gnutls is just wrong, or if 
autoconf is breaking compatibility… though my hunch is that the test is badly 
coded and it’s not handling the AC_PROG_CC change to preferring C23?

Cheers,
Ross
