Actually, it's more doable than you'd imagine. I've managed to get kencc to compile objects against the FreeBSD C headers (I can't run them, because I've no way to link them) by pushing something like this into the preprocessor stream:
#define __extension__(foo) #define __attribute__(foo) #define __inline #define __func__ "foo" #define __va_list=va_list typedef char* va_list and feeding it through this: grep -v '^[ ]*typedef.*va_list' | 9 sed 's/return \(\);/return;/g'However, I think that a much better solution is to try to avoid using system headers in most ported code. The Plan9Port headers have no such gcc garbage, except inside a few ifdefs, and only, to my knowledge, for the AUTOLIB() hack.
