Por que o _GNU_SOURCE é definido por padrão e como desativá-lo?

Estou usando o g ++ e ele me disse que eu defini_GNU_SOURCE na linha de comando, mas eu não fiz.

Eu agora que definindo_GNU_SOURCE pode ser usado para ativar a extensão gnu, mas agora não quero essas extensões. Eu adicionei-std=c++0x -pedantic, mas_GNU_SOURCE ainda é definir.

A saída deg++ -v é o seguinte:

$ g++ -v

Quando eu der um arquivo vazio e compilar comg++ -E -dD -std=c++98 -pedantic empty.cpp, Eu entendi isso:

O resultado está me dizendo que_GNU_SOURCE é definido na linha de comando.

Como posso desligar? Eu não quero#undef _GNU_SOURCE em todos os arquivos de origem.
