Perhaps one way around this case is to:

# if !defined(MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_7) || (MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED < MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_7)
#  include <string.h> /* make sure it isn't included again */
#  define strnlen fdt_strnlen
static inline fdt_strnlen(...) { ... }

This way the symbol strnlen() isn't used and the system headers cannot
cause problems.
