Subject: guard bug for strerror_r

hi,
me again.

Digging a bit deeper in strerror_r I think the #if condition that
triggers the declaration of the POSIX version is wrong. 

The linux man page says

       The XSI-compliant version of strerror_r() is provided if:
       (_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600) && ! _GNU_SOURCE
       Otherwise, the GNU-specific version is provided.

but the musl code has

#if defined(_POSIX_SOURCE) || defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) \
 || defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE) || defined(_GNU_SOURCE) \
 || defined(_BSD_SOURCE)
...
int strerror_r (int, char *, size_t);
...
#endif

So if __GNU_SOURCE is set, glibc chooses their own interface and
musl choose the POSIX interface.

Why is musl touching __GNU_SOURCE at all?

Jens
