No there no need for help from emacs and compiler flags can be passed in
command line and also from the C script.

The emacs local variable line is for people to quickly run it with
M-x compile when they open it but you can take this line if you don't
use emacs and run it in the terminal.

BTW running it with ./script.c should be sufficient but I put this line
as example for passing values and compiler flags.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. My GNU/hack does not need extra
dependency as what you suggest and If I share this scripts anyone can
run it without bothering of installing new dependency.
