On arm only, gcc cannot handle C identifiers like:
static void L1__GET_$ENVIRONMENT__defmacro()
reporting:
gcc -g -Wall -DVOL=volatile -fsigned-char -pipe -pg -g -mlong-calls
-I/home/camm/gcl-2.6.7/o -c gcl_defmacro.c
In file included from gcl_defmacro.c:3:

so should this handled in the distribution, or upstream?
