Re: an option to enable C9X features


	> 	-std=iso9899:1990	ANSI C X3.159-1989 / ISO/IEC C 9899:1990

	I like the flexibility of the longer options, but I wonder if we
	should force dumb users to type such long names, or are we secretly
	discouraging the use of any ISO standard?  :-)/2

We can add aliases if necessary.  We already have -ansi (and -pedantic?) which
is equivalent to -std=iso9899:1990 for C code.  We could perhaps add a -std=na1
for the Normative Addition #1.  I suspect that there will be lots of different
standards that people will be interested in, so having the generality at the
begining will be useful.
