#include "/usr/include/unistd.h"
extern "C" int access(const char *, int);

Compiling above causes an error (g++ -c foo.c)

while
#include <unistd.h>
extern "C" int access(const char *, int);

does not.  For some reason the C++ front end treats quoted includes differently than bracketed ones.
>How-To-Repeat:
compile the above code snippets and the error should present itself.
