If that was the reason, it can surely be dropped because the GNU check
was replaced by a linux check later.

I've tested on Linux, and the attached patches fix the problem and compile
fine with normal C as well.  I also got rid of a few warnings by wrapping
some more static strings in C_text() calls (which does nothing in C mode, but
in C++ mode it will add an explicit cast from string to C_char *).

I vote for also applying this to prerelease, as it is a reasonably
simple change and it fixes a real problem with C++.

Cheers,
Peter
