FWIW, in my in-development patch set for JEP 347 (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8208089)

the -xc99=%none% option has been removed and -std=c99 added (for C code). (C++14 includes C99 by reference, so I made that change for consistency in case there were any ABI differences.) Hello Kim , do you have an estimation when your patch will be in ? Or would you suggest to do a separate change and bring in into jdk/jdk (and jdk12) already? I'd recommend a separate change to remove the -xc99=%none%. That's trivial and can be done immediately, to the benefit of everyone. Getting C++14 working is not happening quickly.

Agreed. I merely mentioned the C++14 work as evidence that removing -xc99=%none% didn’t appear harmful.
