The C++ front-end has used such constructs forever. It's always been
the case that you needed make bootstrap or a pre-bootstrapped native
out of the same tree to build the C++ front-end.
It's nice that you're cleaning this up, especially now that GCC no
longer supports this extension, but I wouldn't consider fixing them in
an old branch a high priority.
