There are other, much more complicated cases where ISO C is required.
In fact, the glibc version of the file cannot be used with no-ISO C
compilers without quite a lot of changes. This means, ISO C is not
supported. I don't know what DJ did to import the code in libiberty
but it must have included adding non-ISO C support. So this patch
should be added to his personal set.
