I'd like indication of the minimal standard, according to the following

1. ISO C89

ISO C99 feature should be marked explicitly as such, as well as extensions
from *BSD or glibc.

There are still further versions and revisions of each standard. This is
also why I think that there should be a more official stance by the
DragonFly project both on what standards and what revisions of these
standards.
These standards and specifications may be backwards compatibile, but
still be supersets of one another, both between them, and within their
respective versions.
For example, maybe you really ment the following list:
1. ISO C89
2. ISO C99
3. POSIX (what version ?)
4. SUS (what version ?)
5. *BSD (assuming BSD4.4)
6. glibc (assuming latest)
