This is the pragma for clang modules. I am not familiar with it too @ilya-biryukov is it possible to get some google forks familiar with this involved?

It is not GMF, nor a named module in C++20 sense nor exported in C++20 sense. It is a clang module. So the concept of `GMF`, named module and export ness (and the decl level) is not meaningful here.

It won't be a GMF for sure.

So given it is not the named module in C++20, so the ODR rule in C++20 doesn't apply here. Correct me if I am wrong. I feel clang modules implement the header's semantics, and the name of their modules are simply an annotation and doesn't have semantical effect. So I am not surprise that it is a valid code since it basically a concentration of two headers.
