That part of the Coding Standards is about a different question, more
specific.  Namely, about whether to use GNU extensions (to C, for
instance) in the code of GNU packages.

My previous message addressed a related but different question:
whether to make it a goal to support compiling Emacs with a compiler
other than GCC.

These two questions are in the same area, indeed they overlap,
However, they are not the same question.  There is no conflict between
what I wrote recently about one, and what the Coding Standards say
about the other.
