The issue is in libstdc++ headers. Here the _Exit doesn't get (as
other runtime functions of stdlib.h) no put into std:: namespace. So
this is an issue to be address to gcc bugzilla. AFAIR there is already
a report for it, but I am not sure.
I don't see here a good solution for this to fix this in our headers,
but maybe someone of you have an idea how to solve it on our site.

Kai
