The problem is we're putting these underscore-prefixed macros in the
public API, which has two issues, one is they are underscore-prefixed
which is a little unkosher in public API since we couldn't fix them if
the C lib decided to use those names, and two people might use these
macros.

I think maybe both issues would be addressed if we did:

 s/_DBUS_GNUC/DBUS_INTERNAL_DO_NOT_USE_GNUC/

which is klunky, but life is painful sometimes.
