There is no problem with leading underscores. You are missing some macro

I assume that it is still a configuration challenge to get rid of a message like
"__dest: present in 16 parsing errors" for the source file "string.h".
You have to look at the context of __dest to see how it does not follow
the normal C grammar. Often the problem is not the specified token, but
something nearby that causes the parser to interpret the specified token
in the wrong way.
Can the tool "spatch" help a bit more to resolve such an open issue for the
completion of source code analysis?
I don't think so. As I have mentioned in another context, yacc-like
parsing technology is not known for the ability to generate helpful error
messages. And please don't suggest other parsing technologies. The
amount of work to implement a C parser is enormous.
