__I is a reserved identifier.

#undef I

No one has any business defining I as a macro.

Replying to steven_watanabe:

#undef I
No one has any business defining I as a macro.

I agree that it's a pain that I is defined as a macro, but glibc does it and the solution to the compile errors (i.e., reordering the headers) was non-obvious.
