Hello Yaakov,
its good that you keep the FreeBSD __*_VISIBLE defines in place, so that its still easy to use code from FreeBSD. At least for RTEMS this is important, since we use the network, USB and SD/MMC stack from FreeBSD.
I am not sure if its a good thing to do the feature checks differently in each C library. My approach would have been to us an existing mechanism and in case of errors report them to the upstream.
