    Can you make NetBSD include files
    a bit friendlier for C compilers other that GCC?
 
 
 this should be valid for an ANSI C compiler.  the relevant parts are:
 
 from <sys/cdefs.h>:
 
 #ifdef __GNUC__
 #define __GNUC_PREREQ__(x, y)                                           \
         ((__GNUC__ == (x) && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= (y)) ||                  \
 	 (__GNUC__ > (x)))
 #else
 #define __GNUC_PREREQ__(x, y)   0
 #endif
 
 
 and the usage from <sys/cdefs_elf.h>:
 
 #if __GNUC_PREREQ__(4, 0)
 
 
 so this should come out as "#if 0" for non GCC compilers.  does lcc
 define __GNUC__ by chance?
