I just checked all these.
BUILD_BUG_ON is not there. A patch for it is trivial. I will do that
soon.
offsetof can be found in stddef.h.
alignof is C11 (we require C99), but there is __alignof__ gcc extension,
which clang also supports. We've been using that for quite a long time,
so I don't think we need to do anything about it.
Wei.
