            Bug ID: 3376
           Summary: Documentation says C89 compiler required but C99
                    compiler is actually required
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 8.8p1
          Hardware: ix86
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: gregkatz at gmail.com

I'm trying to compile a OpenSSH portable for a system that has a C89
capable compiler, but not a C99 capable compiler, which the INSTALL
file says should work: "A C compiler.  Any C89 or better compiler
should work." However, the configure script checks for C99. Might make
sense to update the INSTALL file.

Thanks for all your hard work on OpenSSH. Truly an amazing piece of
software. I remember when I was skeptical about switching from telnet.
