Comment (by nickm):

 Have a look at commit message 0ca83872468af59 -- those C99 features were
 put into address.c specifically to catch compilers without c99 support, so
 that we can find out from people whether there's a compelling need not to
 use the 15-year-old standard.

 There's been a thread about this on tor-dev last month.  In particular,
 see https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-
 dev/2014-October/007633.html .
