[c-mita]

Don't pass -std=c89 to your compile flags - that doesn't support // as a comment marker.

The provided Makefile uses -std=c99 - why notjust use that?

Thank you, @c-mita it worked. I had downloaded the files from https://github.com/DiamondLightSource/durin/releases/tag/2019v1. it had -std=c89.
