This is an installed header and must be namespace-clean. Unless it is
specifically part of the documented API for that header (much of which
comes from POSIX) that symbol names such as "buffer", "pattern" and
"length" are reserved by the header and must not be defined as macros by
the user before it's included, such changes are incorrect.
