Right. Pending undiscovered cleverness.

Yep.
However. This is a low-priority item for me. In the meantime, should I
remove the include_next from the c_std headers? Currently, it's not
necessary and perhaps causing un-necessary problems.
Should I check in the
c_compatibility headers so that it's easier for people to understand what
the final form for the "C" headers should look like? (They can be checked
in, but not actively used).
