I agree with your analysis that, in isolation, swapping BIT_SIZE and BITEST in intrin.def only paper over the cracks.
However, this patch is required in conjunction with Toon's patch to use strcasecmp when comparing intrinsic names.

No. This is completely wrong. Please re-read my explanation of
the problem. Swapping BIT_SIZE and BITEST papers over the symptom without
fixing the problem. Do not even bother submitting your patch.
