[RFC PATCH 0/9] -std=c99 / -std=c++0x -pedantic

[Jani Nikula]

Hi all, this series was borne of curiousity about compiling the notmuch codebase
using -std=c99 / -std=c++0x -pedantic options. The C part is split into separate
patches to make it easier to see each warning and fix; with C++ I didn't bother
so much.

Turns out there are a few specific issues, but overall it's not too bad. However
my gut feeling is that some of the fixes to get standards compliance are uglier
than just using the GCC extensions. The question is, do we care about anything
other than GCC?

Comments and discussion welcome; that was the whole point here rather than any
serious effort for merging these. (But that can follow if people think this is
worth it.)

BR,
Jani.
