Agreed, but that should only affect a lint program that understands C11.
Any other program should simply not be defining lint in the first place.

I saw your report of emacs bug#23640, and followed here. I think the
real question is why the recent change to emacs configure.ac added a
definition of lint - that seems wrong.
