I agree, that's why I asked for something “GCC-portable”.
What problem are you trying to tackle here Florian?
I want a simple and robust fix for this glibc bug:
<https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17523>

don't like to special-case O_CREAT, O_TMPFILE, and potential other flag
combinations.
