about where they may or may not be used.  Do you really have a
problem avoiding identifiers defined in this or that library

Let me ask the question differently.  Have you ever run into an
actual problem due to inadvertent collision with a reserved
identifier?

Not in my own code.  But I remember an old piece of code whose
author apparently thought that 'inline' is a perfect name for
input line.  Few days ago I had trouble compiling with gcc-15
code which declares its own 'bool' type.  The code is supposed to
compile using a wide range of compilers, so I am still looking
for "best" solution.
