Re: [PATCH] fix some clang warnings

It seems a little weird to me that clang defines __GNUC__, but I
assume there are good reasons for it.

The reason is essentially that clang targets compatibility with GCC
(implementing the same extensions & cie), in the sense "drop in
replacement that should be able to compile legacy code possibly relying
on __GNUC__ and GCC extensions."
