When using the AIX XLC V16.1 compiler to build GNU make 4.4, the following
error is observed:

        source='make-4.4/src/main.c' object='src/main.o' libtool=no  
DEPDIR=.deps
depmode=xlc /bin/sh make-4.4/build-aux/depcomp  /opt/IBM/xlc/16.1.0/bin/xlc_r
-DHAVE_CONFIG_H   -Isrc -Imake-4.4/src -Ilib -Imake-4.4/lib 
-DLIBDIR=\"/opt/tools/gnumake/4.4/lib\"
-DLOCALEDIR=\"/opt/tools/gnumake/4.4/share/locale\" 
-DINCLUDEDIR=\"/opt/tools/gnumake/4.4/include\"     -g -c -o src/main.o
make-4.4/src/main.c
"make-4.4/src/main.c", line 1508.78: 1506-041 (E) The invocation of macro
memcmp contains fewer arguments than are required by the macro definition.
"make-4.4/src/main.c", line 1508.26: 1506-046 (S) Syntax error.
"make-4.4/src/main.c", line 1508.26: 1506-182 (S) Arguments missing for
built-in function __memcmp.

Given that the following comment exists with STRING_SIZE_TUPLE, surely
STRING_SIZE_TUPLE should not be used with memcmp?

/* Only usable when NOT calling a macro: only use it for local functions.  */
#define STRING_SIZE_TUPLE(_s) (_s), CSTRLEN(_s)
