More generally, g++ does not (currently) reject some of GNU extenion
identifiers beginning with __. I'm not sure what should be the right
approach. For example I don't want g++ to complain about __complex__
in the standard header <complex>. I guess one could complain
conditionally according to some flags (for example testing
in_system_header_p).
