You could use generic selection and _Generic. But these days, that's
more restrictive than C++ in terms of compiler support.
I only care about gcc, but I do need to support 4.8.5 (in EL7), so it
looks like that isn't an option.
It's not really defined to add “#define _GNU_SOURCE” after the first
#include, so you could probably just check for _GNU_SOURCE.
I'm actually doing that as well. I just wanted to catch the (admittedly
pathological) case where Python.h includes string.h *before* defining
_GNU_SOURCE.
Here's what I've got so far. (It looks like my 100-line estimate may
have been a bit low. Gotta love C!)
