The compiler considers blocks to be scalar types:

enum ScalarTypeKind {
  STK_CPointer,
  STK_BlockPointer,
  STK_ObjCObjectPointer,
  STK_MemberPointer,
  STK_Bool,
  STK_Integral,
  STK_Floating,
  STK_IntegralComplex,
  STK_FloatingComplex,
  STK_FixedPoint
};

Oh, and blocks are not strictly an Objective-C language extension; I understand that "blocks" is a highly generic term that you may not want to use alone, but calling them "ObjC blocks" may be misleading as well.

Make sure blocks are scalar types, not object types.

Thanks, this looks right, assuming you've decided to continue calling them "objc blocks" despite my comment.

This LGTM too, but like John I would prefer a non-_OBJC_ name for the macro since -fblocks also gets used with C/C++.

Maybe, _LIBCPP_HAS_EXTENSION_BLOCKS?

Rename __config macro to _LIBCPP_HAS_EXTENSION_BLOCKS
