    The current description refers to ISO C99 not being widely adopted,
    which it is believed to be now.
    
            * manual/creature.texi (_ISOC99_SOURCE): Update the dated
            description.
    
    (cherry picked from commit e8d190b9ed81a1b342f0969bc2b5505403183bce)

-Until the revised @w{ISO C} standard is widely adopted the new features
-are not automatically enabled.  @Theglibc{} nevertheless has a complete
-implementation of the new standard and to enable the new features the
-macro @code{_ISOC99_SOURCE} should be defined.
+If this macro is defined, features from ISO C99 are included.  Since
