C?

C89 is a subset thereof, and the problem is also present with -std=c90.

And it can be seen in more headers like math.h

IMO it's reasonable if the C modules require some more modern standard
like C99.  But that's only an issue of how to build the objects, the
ordinary user will never be annoyed by that.

That's basically blocked because MISRA is not open.  How cpild a GCC
developer review code, fix bugs or confirm bugs if he does not know
what the compiler is supposed to do?

Except he buys an expensive document.
