>> liblzma is also written in C99, so you need to backport that too.
liblzma is written in a bit of both gnu89 & gnu99, so this might be
needed (ie it doesn't use stdbool.h, declaration within looops (ie.
'(int i =0; i++; i <10), etc. for being able to built without c99.

It does at least build fine using gnu89 with gcc, and I think it would
be pretty similar situation for msvc. Also if you look at the headers,
there's various gcc macros and defines to determine c standard version
used, and for non-c99, various variables, macros etc. are declared for
achieving compatibility..
