Yes, any code that is in a file that is processed using the c99  
language standard is bound by that language standard.  In his  
implementation of the builtins, he choose to put them in a c99  
language header file, so this choice drives the dependancy.  The  
implementation of the builtins of course need not be implemented this  
way.
