BTW, would it make sense fr this patch to be cherry-picked into 1.4.8?
I guess the reason that LNK macros are under GNU_SOURCE is the following
text from stat(2):
 
       The S_ISLNK and S_ISSOCK macros
       are not in POSIX.1-1996, but both will be in the next  POSIX  standard;
       the former is from SVID 4v2, the latter from SUSv2.
