I was going back and forth on this myself. I simply wasn't sure whether
it even buys us anything anymore if we have both "-std=gnu99" _and_
"-Wno-c11-extensions". But maybe this combination at least also detects
the use of newer (C23) extensions?

In any case, I'm also happy with the patch you posted. Thanks!
