        Bug#57994: Compiler flag change build error : my_redel.c
        
        The expansion of stpcpy (in glibc) causes warnings if the
        return value of strmov is not being used. Since stpcpy is
        a GNU extension and the expansion ends up using a built-in
        provided by GCC, use the compiler provided built-in directly
        when possible.

        Define a dummy MY_GNUC_PREREQ when not compiling with GCC.
