I don't think that there is a strong relationship.  The Perl source
code is amazingly portable; it runs on well over 100 platforms.  Most
of these platforms probably aren't C99 conformant, and so the Perl
source doesn't depend on C99 features.

Perl could be enhanced to support these features on C99
conformant platforms, probably most easily by writing a module.
