Yeah, the seems to be the culprit. Line 480 of reentr.h is part of the
definition of a monster struct; the relevent field is:

#ifdef HAS_CRYPT_R
#if CRYPT_R_PROTO == REENTRANT_PROTO_B_CCDCRYPTD* _crypt_data;
#elsestruct crypt_data _crypt_struct;
#endif
#endif /* HAS_CRYPT_R */

The "crypt_data" struct is defined in crypt.h, but only if _GNU_SOURCE
is defined -- just like crypt_r().
