Old ones.   For the Solaris releases we're providing current Xorg packages
for, we have no problem with C99 types, but we know there's still users out
there of releases predating C99, some of whom occasionally try to build Xorg
themselves.   (Similar to those you still see pop up once or twice a year
trying to build on Red Hat 7.2 or such.)
