Doesn't look like a typo to me: in DJGPP v1, memory.h included
djgppstd.h, which was a hodge-podge of functions, including many in
stdlib.h.

What problems does including stdlib.h cause?  Would it be okay to
simply add string.h, without removing stdlib.h?  That way, we don't
create possible backward incompatibilities that could break existing
programs.
