Something like "Define __no_exceptions if you want a standard library without exceptions" or similar – in this case, user code needs to define this macro and it'll be standards-compliant since it's using the __identifier as intended by the C++ implementation it uses. Due to this, it's difficult to predict which __identifiers are ok to define and which aren't. The bit you quoted at least doesn't say "don't define __idents", it just says "use __idents only as intended by your C++ implementation" as far as I can tell. The other paragraph explicitly says "shall not #define or #undef names lexically identical to keywords […]" (, in "C++ programs that use the facilities of the C ++ standard library."). I agree that the warning would be More Correct if it checked for that too, but it seems like a minor detail in practice, as most programs use the C++ standard library – minor enough to not revert the warning over it, at least.
