Your patch is almost there.

That patch is unacceptable because it exposes code which relies on non-ISO C
extensions. Please make sure you know why you are removing the code you are
removing.

Add back the `#ifdef __GNUC__` and __extension__ usage, and keep the changes to
reference internal types and that would be an acceptable patch to post to
libc-alpha.

Please note that we are frozen for the 2.19 release, so this will go in once
2.20 opens in a week or less.
