Well then where the heck is numeric_limits, as described in Stroustrup 3rd
Ed.???
Stroustrup says it's in <limits> ... not <limits.h> and not <climits> but plain
<limits>.

Stroustrup says the wide character classifying functions are in <cwtype> and
<wtype.h>; but I can't find either, the closest in DJGPP are <cwctype> and the
nonexistent <wctype.h>... what the hell is going on here anyways? I notice also
that the compiler can't find auto_ptr even when I am certain to include
<memory>, and struct nothrow_t is missing from <new>...
