Weak +1 (+1, but similar levels of unsuredness). --- On the llvm-libc side, we're running into pain with some of the compiler provided headers, too, particularly because they tend to themselves include additional headers (the xmm intrinsic headers including stdlib for example). I'm very tempted to resort to `-nostdinc` and just have our own definitions for everything: ```c typedef __SIZE_TYPE__ size_t; ... ``` and just be done with compiler resource headers. --- I'll suspect that `#define __need_foo` `#include <stddef.h>` pattern makes precompiling stddef.h impossible. --- cc @enh for visibility. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/86748 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
