I tried to build devel/freebsd-gcc9@powerpc on a powerpc64 (in an ELFv1 clang environment) and it reported (listing just one of the examples that pointed to vec_step):
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/devel/freebsd-gcc9/work-powerpc/gcc-9.2.0/gcc/tree-vect-loop.c:4595:12: error: expected unqualified-id tree vec_step = build_vector_from_val (cr_index_vector_type, step); ^ (Unsure if white handling will still end up with ^ pointing to vec_step.) clang reserves a name that the gcc source code uses: vec_step . (I'll not get into the long, messy history of this name and multiple standards built on top of C/C++, not necessarily in a language appropriate way.)
