Basically: its her fault to use Windows.
But: she's clever and uses Gentoo Prefix.

Compared to what Interopsystems provides (set -D_ALL_SOURCE in $CFLAGS
shell variable at login), we should have gcc to define _ALL_SOURCE.

So to find out how many packages are broken _with_ _ALL_SOURCE defined,
we can add -D_ALL_SOURCE to C{,XX}FLAGS in profile, and remerge -e
world.

If that's not too many (or less than the number of now-working ones),
add it to gcc (or its wrapper, as the first cmdline-arg), so -U still
works if necessary.
