They come with the libg++ distribution.

Is this relevant to the problem with _G_fpos_t?  AFAIK, compiling GCC
doesn't require using the C++ headers.  Or is it?

If I understand correctly, the problem with stddef.h is another
problem, not directly related to _G_fpos_t, right?

If so, please describe it.  AFAIK, the headers which GCC brings with
it are only for platforms where you need to compile it with the native
compiler which doesn't have ANSI headers such as stddef.h.  This is
not our case, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Robert, can you tell whether you saw this problem when you build GCC,
and if so, how should it be solved?
