The problem appears to come from the inclusion of editline/readline.h, which
ultimately includes termios.h. I'm not sure who should "fix" this, but below is
a simple reproducer demonstrating the error. In Spack, we have a patch to
sqlite's shell.c that applies the undef trick that I use in the reproducer.

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <editline/readline.h>
#ifdef FIX
#undef B0
#endif
int main()
{
int B0 = 9;
printf("B0 = %d\n", B0);
return 0;
}

So, what you are saying, then, is that "B0" is a reserved word on
Power 8 and Power 9 systems, and can never be used as a local variable
name?
