It is "optional" in that the code will still compile in 1999 mode. But it 
makes C11 and C++11 atomic types mandatory. Not sure about LLVM, but AFAIU, 
that means GCC version 5. In other words "mandatory" C++11.

Of course, there is an argument that VLC must be *compatible* with C11 and 
C++11 anyway, *because* new compilers and standard libraries provide them. 
Regardless of requiring or not requiring C/C++11.
