I did see the D_GNU_SOURCE issue that you described a while back with
2.8. My bleeding edge Fedora 15 system's yum repository only has 2.8,
for some reason.

I'm glad that you feel we're ready to officially support Clang -
should this be in the 9.1 release notes?

Anyway, since the problem has been narrowed to a specific compiler
flag, and we have a good test case, I'm optimistic that the bug can be
fixed quickly.
