Did I already suggest "USE_LANGUAGES+= c99"?

It would be great to use the USE_LANGUAGES variable for even more 
languages. At least the variable name sounds very good for this purpose.

#USE_LANGUAGES?=   c c99 c++ perl python lua modula-3 fortran

Oh, well, let's stick to the simple things first. Only add c99 as a 
language.
