Well, I'm in the process of converting some programs I would find Useful
for my DOS box, but in the process of compiling I find that I'm 
"missing" several .h files. These include features.h, inttypes.h, and
stdint.h.

Wait. stdint.h defines typenames that apparently are used somewhat in
the GNU community. At least, these files all have the standard "This
file is part of the GNU C Library" message at the top. So, I was
wondering if these files were omitted from DJGPP on purpose or if it's
just a matter of "too much to do, another one slipped through the
cracks"? I'm lucky, 'cause I can always get these from friends that
have linux boxen ... but I'm still curious as to why they don't come
packaged with DJGPP, or if maybe I missed a .zip file in my download.
