Clang 3.4 stdlib.h compile error

I am running into a rather hairy compile issue with Clang 3.4. The code compiles just fine with Clang 3.2 but I want to experiment with some bleeding edge features found only on Clang 3.4.

I installed Clang 3.4 by following the instructions here.

Does anyone have a clue as to why Clang is complaining about stdlib.h? I am using Lubuntu 13.04.

Output from Clang 3.2 -

The issue is that you're using -fms-extensions, which enables MS extensions, including a __uptr keyword. Inside stdlib.h, __uptr is used as an identifier:

union wait *__uptr;

... which is incompatible with the MS extension.

Alp Toker has added a workaround for this in clang trunk in upstream r195710, and the fix will be in the Clang 3.4 release.

This was http://llvm.org/PR17824 and was fixed by Alp Toker in Clang r195710: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=195710&view=rev
