> I think we can define a new builtin `__builtin_ia32_BitScanForward` in BuiltinsX86.def. And when macro `_MSC_VER` is not defined, define `_BitScanForward` in ia32intrin.h by calling the `__builtin_ia32_BitScanForward`. Then we can avoid the N specifier and the name issue. Do you think it's appropriate?
Instead of new builtins, can we use  __builtin_clz, __builtin_clzl, __builin_ctz, __builtin_ctzl?
