Hi Bruno, > This is perfectly acceptable for Gnulib. It has debuggability and type safety.
Perfect. Then I will come up with a module in this form. > You have precedent e.g. in lib/diffseq.h and lib/aligned-malloc.h.

Or the included file #undefs the macros as in lib/diffseq.h. Speaking of prefixes: As macro names (and other names) starting with "_GL_" are not officially allowed by ISO C, I think it makes sense to think of a new convention for new sources (while old sources could later be updated incrementally). For example, one could use the prefix "GL__" (double underscore) for (future) private identifiers. Marc
