:-) I guess you are right and nobody declares them.

Actually I suspect that stdio macros might use stuff (like __bufpos)
which is located past the proposed new structure member, in which case
existing binaries would become incompatible with a patched library:

>>>  #endif /* __UCLIBC_HAS_WCHAR__ */
>>>  	int __filedes;
>>> +	int __errno_value;
>>>  #ifdef __STDIO_BUFFERS
>>>  	unsigned char *__bufstart;	/* pointer to buffer */
>>>  	unsigned char *__bufend;	/* pointer to 1 past end of buffer */
->      unsigned char *__bufpos;
