In the TOT for stdlib.h, I think I'd clarify the alternating nature
of these by using "#elif" instead of "#endif\n#if", that way
the last clause becomes "#else" instead of another obscuring test.
I believe David is already working to adjust the FreeBSD system headers.
Anyway, for fixinc, I think the simpliest fix is to constrain to
FreeBSD, grep for the stdlib.h header file version and then do
a "c-fix" that replaces that particular "== 3" with ">= 3".
This is how I fixed this locally (by editin the system headers in place).
Unfortunately, fixinc is a black magic box for me, so I wonder if someone
different from this poor bug reporter would mind working on that? ;-)
