GCC's implementation of <stdbool.h> is not valid for C++11 because [support.runtime] p8 says "The header <cstdbool> and the header <stdbool.h> shall not define macros named bool, true, or false."
This patch adds a libstdc++ test for that requirement and adjusts stdbool.h to meet it. I've left _Bool defined in C++ as a GNU extension. It's conceivable someone is relying on these macros being defined in C++, in which case we could only define them when __cplusplus < 201103L, but IMHO it's better to not define them at all. Tested x86_64-linux, OK for trunk? gcc/ * ginclude/stdbool.h (true, false, bool): Do not define for C++. libstdc++/ * testsuite/18_support/headers/cstdbool/macros.cc: New.
