[PATCH] Makefile: Ensure _GNU_SOURCE really is always defined

From: Seth Forshee
Date: Mon Oct 28 2013 - 09:15:59 EST


When CLFAGS is set with a command argument a normal variable
assignment is not sufficient to ensure that _GNU_SOURCE will be
defined. Since this really is critical for building, use an
override directive when adding it to CFLAGS to ensure that it
really does get defined in all cases.
