Issues with headers
===================
-There are various technical issues with the definitions contained in
-glibc's headers, listed below. The list below assumes GCC 3.3.2, and
-relates to i686-linux; older GCC may lead to more problems in the
-headers.
-
-Note that the _t suffix is reserved by POSIX, but not by pure ISO C.
-Also, the Single Unix Specification generally requires more types to
-be included in headers (if _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined appropriately)
-than ISO C permits.
-
-<ctype.h> should not declare size_t.
-
-<signal.h> should not declare size_t.
-
-<stdio.h> should not declare or use wchar_t or wint_t.
-
-<wchar.h> does not support AMD1; to support it, the functions
-fwprintf, fwscanf, wprintf, wscanf, swprintf, swscanf, vfwprintf,
-vwprintf, vswprintf and fwide would need to be declared when
-__STDC_VERSION__ >= 199409L and not just for C99.
-
-<wctype.h> should not declare size_t.
+None known.
