Sounds like the problem is primarily in glibconfig.h
which is generated by testing the compiler.

I'm not sure how to handle this exactly but you could easily hack it

CC=c89 ./configure
mv glibconfig.h glibconfig.c89.h
CC=gcc ./configure
mv glibconfig.h glibconfig.gcc.h
cat <<EOF > glibconfig.h
#ifdef __GNUC__
#include "glibconfig.gcc.h"
#else
#include "glibconfig.c89.h"
#endif
EOF

Then copy glibconfig.*.h parallel to glibconfig.h and see if it
works.

This could be automated if a list of compilers could
be determined in advance, maybe configure.in
could support COMPILERS="c89 gcc cc" instead of CC.
