Feeble attempt to document the horde of #defines we deal with.
Editors, please make your descriptions short but informative.



__BEGIN_DECLS, __END_DECLS
    Defined to either empty or 'extern "C" {' and '}' if included by C++.

__USE_GNU, __USE_BSD, __USE_XOPEN[2K], __USE_SVID, __USE_POSIX...
    If defined, user program which included us requests compat additions
    from relevant standard or Unix flavor. See features.h for full list.

__USE_FILE_OFFSET64
__USE_LARGEFILE[64]
_LARGEFILE[64]_SOURCE
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS
    ???

__THROW
    Function annotation "I do not throw anything".
__NTH(func(params))
    Function annotation "I do not throw anything".
    Needed for situatuons when it's unclear on what side of "func(params)"
    the "throw()" or "attribute((nothrow))" should eventually appear.
    Messy, eh?

return_type __REDIRECT(name, (params), alias)
    declare alias to "name(params)"
return_type __REDIRECT_NTH(name, (params), alias)
    declare alias to "name(params) __THROW"

__BIG_ENDIAN    4321
__LITTLE_ENDIAN 1234
    Should be always as shown. __PDP_ENDIAN is historic, ignore?
__BYTE_ORDER, __FLOAT_WORD_ORDER
    Should be defined to __BIG_ENDIAN or __LITTLE_ENDIAN.
    Usage: "#if __BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN ..."
    __USE_BSD adds versions without leading "__" for above four defines.
_BIG_ENDIAN, __BIG_ENDIAN__
_LITTLE_ENDIAN, __LITTLE_ENDIAN__
    Defined (to what?) by gcc for some architectures to indicate endianness.
    Seems that the fact of defined-ness is an indicator, not the value.

__USE_EXTERN_INLINES
    If defined, headers will supply some function as inlines.
    uclibc itself is built with this option off and provides
    out-of-line version of every inlined function in case user program
    calls it instead of using an inline.
_EXTERN_INLINE
    If not defined by user prior to #include, will be defined to
    "extern inline" or equivalent. IOW, if user defines it prior
    #include, it replaces "extern __inline" string in inline definitions
    (those enabled by __USE_EXTERN_INLINES) with something else.
    A few uclibc .c files use it to create non-inlined functions
    by defining it to "".
__extern_inline
    Defined to "extern inline", modulo gcc/C standard deviations.
    Can't be used by user to play tricks as with _EXTERN_INLINE.

internal_function
    Used to modify function's calling convention, if "standard" one
    is suboptimal. Examples:
	int func(params) internal_function;
	int internal_function func(params) { body }

_LIBC
    Defined only at libc build time. It is physically deleted
from the headers (using unifdef tool) in installed headers ("make install").

__UCLIBC_XXX
    uclibc-internal and uclibc-specific defines. In particular:
__UCLIBC_HAS_XXX__, __UCLIBC_HAVE_XXX__
    __UCLIBC_HAS_XXX__ are booleans (defined/undefined), defined in
    uClibc_config.h and generated from uclibc .config file.
    __UCLIBC_HAVE_XXX__ are booleans from bits/uClibc_arch_features.h
    (there are more __UCLIBC_XXX defines there)

_IEEE_LIBM
    Always defined at libm build time
__LDBL_COMPAT
    Never defined, TODO: remove?

__SSP_ALL__
    All functions, even small ones, have stack smashing protection
    prologue enabled.
