Comment (by kencu):

 However, if it is upstream's intention to have the software confirm to the
 c99 standard, they should use and require it all the time, on all systems,
 and with all compilers.

 Nothing to do with Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard, or PowerPC.

 If the cairo project wants to adhere to a certain C standard, however, it
 not visible after 10 minutes perusing their documentation or source code.
