Thank you for your review! Patrick and I were discussing the naming
conventions for the macros _GLIBCXX_HAS_BUILTIN_TRAIT and
_GLIBCXX_NO_BUILTIN_TRAITS. It was brought to our attention that these
namings might be ambiguous, as there are implementations that have
corresponding built-ins but do not have fallback. Therefore, we
believe that using _GLIBCXX_USE_BUILTIN_TRAIT instead of
_GLIBCXX_HAS_BUILTIN_TRAIT would be more appropriate. Similarly, we
think that _GLIBCXX_AVOID_BUILTIN_TRAITS would be a better choice than
_GLIBCXX_NO_BUILTIN_TRAITS, as the latter implies that there are no
built-ins, when in fact it is meant to express that the use of
built-ins should be avoided when defining this macro. Could you please
let me know your thoughts on these updated namings?
