I think this is not a good way to address this issue.  The GCC
documentation (section "System-specific Predefined Macros" [1])
desribes how this should be handled.  The "correct" (TM) way to fix
this is by adding "-ansi" or any "-std" option that requests strict
conformance to the compiler/preprocessor command line.
