Yes please (provided it's usable with Clang).

I'd prefer the combination HAVE_UBSAN plus UBSAN, as outlined.

What about this part?

Could you mention this in the commit message then, please?

Except for the #include-s.

As there's no reasonable chance for us to ever be able to take
a Linux file completely unmodified, if putting such #define-s into
individual files is too restrictive for your taste, how about making
those files identify themselves (by, say, #define LINUX_SOURCE)
and enabling such compatibility things only for those?
