Description

The implementation of C++ modules in GCC and other compilers may pose some constraints on the kind of preprocessor and language constructs glibc headers can use (and the kernel headers they require). With this BoF, we hope to coordinate this a bit between GCC and glibc, so that we do not have to put hacks into the compiler or rely on the fixincludes mechanism (which is incompatible with glibc updates).
