Looking at this again, it looks to me like almost all of the functions
under _GNU_SOURCE are also present on BSD. That is to say, just
replacing #ifdef _GNU_SOURCE with

#if defined(_GNU_SOURCE) || defined(_BSD_SOURCE)

would give a closer approximation to what _BSD_SOURCE is supposed to
do. I'm not saying this is the best solution, but before I go
committing patches to support _BSD_SOURCE, I'd at least like it to be
reasonably complete and not just a few functions to make Toybox
happy...
