It's 2017 and they're still not C99 compliant? Oh well.
TBH, I really doubt that restrict buys us enough performance to justify
dealing with this. I'd just revert that change altogether.
Or, if you insist on having it, we're going to have to go the pg_restrict
route. I don't see why that means duplicating any configure logic: on
non-Windows we can use the autoconf probe and then write
"#define pg_restrict restrict".
