OK, thanks. Shall we include it in the set of default includes?
@example
@group
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#if STDC_HEADERS
# include <stdlib.h>
# include <stddef.h>
#else
# if HAVE_STDLIB_H
# include <stdlib.h>
# endif
#endif
#if HAVE_STRING_H
# if !STDC_HEADERS && HAVE_MEMORY_H
# include <memory.h>
# endif
# include <string.h>
#else
# if HAVE_STRINGS_H
# include <strings.h>
# endif
#endif
#if HAVE_INTTYPES_H
# include <inttypes.h>
#endif
#if HAVE_UNISTD_H
# include <unistd.h>
#endif
@end group
@end example
Also, the above set of default includes is traditional, but is there
any reason not to use elif? Lemme bet, not KnR?
#if HAVE_STRING_H
# if !STDC_HEADERS && HAVE_MEMORY_H
# include <memory.h>
# endif
# include <string.h>
#elif HAVE_STRINGS_H
# include <strings.h>
#endif
