Thinking more about this; what if we mark such builtins as unsupported
for "LP64 (Darwin) + ms_extensions" and then you provide the
definitions via intrin.h (we can generate a compiler macro for this
scenario and conditionalize the include_next as we do for _MSC_VER)?
Do you use this header at all? Are there any other MS related flags
that get passed to the compiler?

It should probably be controlled by a specific driver directive, like “-fms-extensions-lp64-intrinsics” or something like that. Using a new directive means that nobody can accidentally get this behavior if they for some reason do want LLP64 behavior with Windows intrinsics.
