What a lovely C compiler bug... Did you file a bug report with gcc or
xcode? What version of gcc does Lion ship with?

I suppose the macro would have to be disabled for OS X Lion inside
parallel sections (there seems to be __APPLE__ and __OSX__, I don't
know about detecting the OS X version), that's easy to do (undef and
redefine to no-ops before parallel section and redefine it again after
the section). I'll try fixing it during the sprints next week.
