-Subject: [PATCH] Define _GNU_SOURCE when needed
-
-Define _GNU_SOURCE to fix build with musl otherwise we'll got the
-following build failures due to localtime_r, strnlen, gmtime_r and
-asctime_r being undefined:
-
-os/localtime_s.c:124:12: error: implicit declaration of function 'localtime_r'; did you mean 'localtime_s'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
-     dest = localtime_r(timer, dest);
-            ^~~~~~~~~~~
-
-io/gets_s.c:144:32: error: implicit declaration of function 'strnlen'; did you mean 'strlen'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
-         rsize_t len = (rsize_t)strnlen(dest, dmax);
-                                ^~~~~~~
-                                strlen
-
-An other option would be to define AC_GNU_SOURCE in the configure.ac but
-it seems that there is some handling of _GNU_SOURCE in
-safeclib_private.h
-
-Fixes:
