Liberal use of __extension__ has calmed the compiler so that even its
strictest mode doesn't complain (on Linux and for C++, haven't tried
anywhere else yet). Something like `__extension__ typedef long long
foobar;'. IIRC glibc headers use that a lot.
Whether or not it will be the right thing to use __extension__ all over
the place for system-interface stuff is altogether a different
question... I guess if someone cares enough about those warnings they
could submit the patches to apply __extension__.
Cheers and hope this helps,
