So, it is important that standard code not produce errors. Kinda fundamental.
I think this should be fixed in some other way. If a type is to be used as a standard type, producing an error for that type's use is wrong. Instead, find a way (cough, __extension__), to mark or not warn (error) for it instead.

Can you fix __SIZE_TYPE__ itself to have __extension__ in it? If not, then I'd find another way to remove that warning for the type.
