/* This header is separate from features.h so that the compiler can include it implicitly at the start of every compilation. It must
not itself include <features.h> or any other header that includes
<features.h> because the implicit include comes before any feature
test macros that may be defined in a source file before it first
explicitly includes a system header. GCC knows the name of this
header in order to preinclude it. */

specifying compiler intent are available, use them to determine
whether the overall intent is to support these features; otherwise,

define these macros by default. */
