The __extension__ is only added if compiled for < c11. But there is apparently a problem with gcc-4.8: even in c11, it does not support bitfields on u16. See: https://godbolt.org/z/hRIbgg On gcc-4.9, the problem disappeared: https://godbolt.org/z/kkzz9v So as a workaround, using __extension__ should work, probably with a short explanation.
