I thought almost the whole night about your commit und about solutions, because I really dislike introducing -D_GNU_SOURCE.

That's clear. That's why I removed it in commit 35d36c35c9d4949c9a3d8e1591d6b5a08432001a. But that was a mistake for gpm-1, so reverted that commit in dc89dd060f801c35d692ecb8d31f0e1e86968411. The reason why I asked for a buildhost with glibc-2.8 is that I want to remove all those glibc-dependencies that are anyway broken with glibc-2.8 in gpm-2-* branches. So to make it short: Thanks for the quickfix for gpm-1.
