Comment (by michaelld):
OK so if we want to do this generically, we need to augment LegacySupport.
-If- this solution ("hack") is generic across macOS & GCC versions, then
it would be a simple addition to LegacySupport as it is static / does not
require parsing the current USB.h header (as my script requires). This is
a positive feature! I would prefer to not just fix libusb, but rather use
LegacySupport & fix the overarching issue.
@evanmiller : if you look in LegacySupport there is code that shows how to
"#include_next", which is I think what we want here. We create a file
"include/IOKit/usb/USB.h" in LegacySupport that looks for GCC and its
version & then does your hack if required. Then includes the next USB.h.
I'm pretty sure this will work, and in this manner we can test out your
hack & it would be much more robustly used!
