Backporting AC_PROG_CC_C99 macro for redhat.

RedHat 5.4 (and CentOS) ship with 2.59 which doesn't have the
AC_PROG_CC_C99 macro necessary for detecting C99 flags for the
compiler.

+# ----------------------------------------------------------------
+# If the C compiler is not in ISO C99 mode by default, try to add an
+# option to output variable CC to make it so.  This macro tries
+# various options that select ISO C99 on some system or another.  It
+# considers the compiler to be in ISO C99 mode if it handles _Bool,
+# // comments, flexible array members, inline, long long int, mixed
+# code and declarations, named initialization of structs, restrict,
+# va_copy, varargs macros, variable declarations in for loops and
+# variable length arrays.
