Severe problems with the cstring functions (new and again)

It seems clear to me that there are two options:
1) Don't mess with the C++ signatures of the string functions for 3.0.
2) Provide a C++ version of <string.h>. I would think that this could
consist simply of
#include <cstring>
using std::foo
...
and change cstring to use #include_next, as has been previously suggested.
Post 3.0.x, option 2 is IMO the only real option.
Of course, I haven't been messing with this stuff, so what do I know?
