That's...odd. I don't quite know what happened there, sorry. here is the full error

/cvmfs/soft.computecanada.ca/nix/var/nix/profiles/16.09/include/stdlib.h:471:35<http://soft.computecanada.ca/nix/var/nix/profiles/16.09/include/stdlib.h:471:35>: error: expected initializer before ‘__attribute_alloc_size__’
      __THROW __attribute_malloc__ __attribute_alloc_size__ ((2)) __wur;
                                   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I had seen the 'error: expected ‘,’ or ‘;’ before ‘__attribute_alloc_size__’' posts, but this seems to be different.

I take it then that you've never run into this before?

You didn't actually paste the error message itself, but I guess it must be
'error: expected ‘,’ or ‘;’ before ‘__attribute_alloc_size__’' from hits found

This error seems to occur in various other contexts. Perhaps something due to
your particular build chain rather than GDAL itself.    Of course if you find a
reasonable fix to upstream in GDAL, that'd be welcome.
