Subject: [Boost-build] gcc: options specific to C compilation

Hello Everyone,

I would like to add -std=c99 as a requirement to the project with C as
well as C++ code. So I added it using the <cflag> feature, which breaks
compilation of C++ code.

I have noticed that in the manual it says that cflags contains options
for both C and C++ compilation. I have also noticed that a feature
called <compileflags> is being used in the msvc.jam. It seems to be a
set of options that is common to C and C++ compilation. This feature is
currently not usable for the gcc toolset which to me is rather confusing.

Best,

Jeroen
