I was not clear when I referred to "those others" above. What I meant by 
it is that you have checks for __cpluscplus in some places within the 
C++ std lib config headers, but they can be removed because you disabled 
std lib configuration when __cpluscplus is not set. Attached are the 
patch files for those changes for removing the checks for __cpluscplus 
in the std lib headers, if you want to apply them.
