In general, we use __ for glibc internals that are not intended for direct access by users. In some cases, we have non-__ identifiers that are redirected to these __ identifiers. In some cases it may be beneficial to expose vendor extensions under __ names, so that they can be used in strict standard modes, but we are quite far away from that for C++ at least.
