We don't do the kind of changes you propose without discussion.

Are you sure this is correct? I'm pretty certain it isn't. The
kernel's C environment is not a hosted implementation.
GCC manual page gcc(1) says:
-ffreestanding
Compile for a freestanding environment; this implies the `-fno-
builtin' option, and implies that main has no special require-
ments.
GCC manual says:
(http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.1/gcc/C-Dialect-Options.html)
-ffreestanding
Assert that compilation takes place in a freestanding environment.
This implies -fno-builtin. A freestanding environment is one in
which the standard library may not exist, and program startup may
not necessarily be at main. The most obvious example is an OS
kernel. This is equivalent to -fno-hosted.
But "-ffreestanding" doesn't work with C++. According to above
explanation, "-fno-builtin" is a subset of "-ffreestanding" and it's
enough for kernel.
In /usr/src/contrib/gcc/c-opts.c, "-ffreestanding" is recognized as:
case OPT_ffreestanding:
value = !value;
/* Fall through.... */
case OPT_fhosted:
flag_hosted = value;
flag_no_builtin = !value;
/* warn_main will be 2 if set by -Wall, 1 if set by -Wmain */
if (!value && warn_main == 2)
warn_main = 0;
break;
In /usr/src/contrib/gcc/c-decl.c, "-ffreestanding" takes effects as:
if (MAIN_NAME_P (DECL_NAME (fndecl)) && flag_hosted)
{
if (TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT (TREE_TYPE (TREE_TYPE (fndecl)))
!= integer_type_node)
{
/* If warn_main is 1 (-Wmain) or 2 (-Wall), we have already warned.
If warn_main is -1 (-Wno-main) we don't want to be warned. */
if (!warn_main)
pedwarn ("%Jreturn type of '%D' is not `int'", fndecl, fndecl);
}
else
{
#ifdef DEFAULT_MAIN_RETURN
/* Make it so that `main' always returns success by default. */
DEFAULT_MAIN_RETURN;
#else
if (flag_isoc99)
c_expand_return (integer_zero_node);
#endif
}
}
From above code we can conclude that "-ffreestanding" can affect only
something about main() more than "-fno-builtin".
I have compiled the whole FreeBSD kernel with "-fno-builtin" and met
no problems. Now I am running the kernel with "-fno-builtin" to write
to you with Linux ABI Mozilla-GTK1 1.7.12 and NVIDIA X11 driver 1.0-8762.

This is a namespace violation. A simpler solution is to leave out
argument names entirely.
If the code style permits, I agree with you.
GCC support library usually uses "namespace" to add various prefixes
to its built-in functions/variables in order to avoid conflicts against
user code. In ELF binary file, built-in functions/variables' names are
much longer than "__new__". See files in
/usr/src/contrib/libstdc++/libsupc++/.
