It's not yet clear any such special cases in the script are needed.  But 
if they are, they would only be for specific headers that use #error 
without __USE_GNU, not any wildcard such as hurd/*.h, and we should review 
whether the #error usage is necessary or whether there's a better approach 
in each particular case.
