             Bug #: 13324
           Summary: sys/mount.h on linux defines poorly-namespaced macro
                    BLOCK_SIZE
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
        ReportedBy: pelzlpj@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/mount.h includes the following macro definitions:

    #define BLOCK_SIZE      1024
    #define BLOCK_SIZE_BITS 10

Both of these names, especially BLOCK_SIZE, are quite likely to be found in a
wide variety of code bases.  They are too generic to be safely defined in a
libc header.
