glibc has:

/* It is possible to compile containing GCC extensions even if GCC is
   run in pedantic mode if the uses are carefully marked using the
   `__extension__' keyword.  But this is not generally available before
   version 2.8.  */
#if !__GNUC_PREREQ (2,8)
# define __extension__          /* Ignore */
#endif

so IMHO you could do the same.
