Never looked at that. But to be a bit more precise that should have
been:

You cannot include a C99 header into C++ and expect that all defines
which are made in that header work in the C++ program (some of these
defines are conditional and only in effect if the program which includes
it is C99).

instead of the short description I used, sorry, hope that is a better
wording.

Good point, I think __WORDSIZE is a gnu extension.
I guess the really clean solution will be to have some configure script
which checks it?
