Is the MapServer code supposed to be ANSI C?

While looking at the source of MapServer, I started to wounder if the
source is supposed to be ANSI C or not.  And if it is, is it a goal to
keep the source compatible with C89 or C99.  Anyone know?

If the source isn't supposed to work with C89 compilers, I can ignore
some problems and make some assumtions which are valid for C99 but not
for C89.  If the source isn't supposed to be ANSI C, what is it
supposed to conform to instead?
