I think my preference would be to change include/ansidecl.h to:

 /* This macro simplifies testing whether we are using gcc, and if it
    is of a particular minimum version. (Both major & minor numbers are
    significant.)  This macro will evaluate to 0 if we are not using
    gcc at all.*/
 #ifndef GCC_VERSION
+/* Some compilers pretend to be GCC, even when they are not.  */
+#if defined(__clang__) || defined(__INTEL_COMPILER)
+#define GCC_VERSION 0
+#else
 #define GCC_VERSION (__GNUC__ * 1000 + __GNUC_MINOR__)
+#endif
 #endif /* GCC_VERSION */

so that we really can trust the GCC_VERSION macro, casts in lhs of inline
asm isn't the only incompatibility clang has.

Any other compilers that define __GNUC__?
