This looks like an issue with Apple's "C" headers being incompatible
with anything other than Apple's version of gcc.

I think that it's going to need someone with a Mac to investigate the
issues and make the necessary changes to ctypesgen to either support
Apple's "enhanced" C dialect, or to provide the necessary switches to
disable the enhancements (if such switches exist).
