====================
The macros __STDC_IEC_559__, __STDC_IEC_559_COMPLEX__ and
-__STDC_ISO_10646__ are properly supposed to be defined by the
-compiler, and to be constant throughout the translation unit (before
-and after any library headers are included). However, they mainly
-relate to library features, and the necessary magic has yet to be
-implemented for GCC to predefine them to the correct values for the
-library in use, so glibc defines them in <features.h>. Programs that
-test them before including any standard headers may misbehave.

GCC doesn't support the optional imaginary types. Nor does it
understand the keyword _Complex before GCC 3.0. This has the
