Because Clang developers actively claim to support GNU extensions, while GCC
never has such a policy to support other extensions.  When an extension is
considered useful we port it, but in this case we already have __builtin_ctzg
as all others have mentioned.

And Clang developers also reject GNU extensions if they consider the extension
"wrong", despite they make such a "compatibility" claim.

In the future (when C23 is widely adopted) people should just use
stdc_trailing_zerosus instead of directly invoking __builtin_ctz{g,s} of
whatever compiler.
