   A quick search shows that NetBSD is setting the following in stdarg.h:

#if !defined(_ANSI_SOURCE) &&                                           \
    (defined(_ISOC99_SOURCE) || (__STDC_VERSION__ - 0) >= 199901L ||    \
     defined(_NETBSD_SOURCE))
#define va_copy(dest, src)      __va_copy((dest), (src))
#endif

   I haven't yet checked to see if this is actually included, or which
macros were set.
