So, one way for a person to port a large project, would be just to select gnu89 as the target language for the project. Should be a one line change, if their project is structured well. Seems like we should mention that at the top.
I think we should leave out headers with empty contents. For example, Java issues. Don’t expect there to be any, so, no need to have the header.
