Richard,
Thanks for the review, context, and suggestions.  I appreciate it.

Can you help me create an accurate C preprocessor check that the compiler in 
use is actually GCC and not Clang or ICC in emulation?

  #if defined(__GNU_C__) && !defined(__clang__)
  // we're gcc
  #elif defined(__clang__)
  // we're clang
  #elif defined(__INTEL_COMPILER)
  // we're icc
  #endif

Or maybe:

  #ifdef(__clang__)
  // we're clang
  #elif defined(__INTEL_COMPILER)
  // we're icc
  #else
  // default to gcc
  #endif

Maybe GCC has something better for this case than `__GNU_C__`?

Regarding the glibc headers, do you know why glibc doesn't just add code for 
`__clang__` rather than Clang (and ICC) claim to be a gcc compatible to a point 
compiler?

Regarding the command line addition, I'd prefer to fix the kernel's compiler 
detection, but I will keep your idea in mind.  It's good to have a few 
solutions in our back pockets should the preferred be shown to be faulty.

Thanks again.
