You are correct. Do you know of any other with a FULL implementation . 
BTW hands up all those using   Comeau's compiler.....

The point is there are no mainstream C99 compilers or any in wide spread 
use. Virtually all compilers at C95+    My understanding is that the 
next C1* will loose some of the C99 features so C99 may never end up 
being implemented in anything other than a few non mainstream compilers
