When using clang to compile an existing program, clang refuses to compile the ext/rope header files. One of the errors given is below.

ropeimpl.h:433:2: error: use of undeclared identifier '_Data_allocate' _Data_allocate(_S_rounded_up_size(__old_len + __len));

g++ will compile this okay but the clang authors claim this code is invalid, http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=6454. Below are the 7 changes to the two files that allowed a successful compile. Line numbers may not be exact.

In ropeimpl.h
