There is only one non-trivial thing (from libstdc++ point of view):
libstdc++-v3 ctype support. Libstdc++ wants to have efficient implementation
of it, so it asks for libc details about internal is*(), tolower(), toupper()
implementation. So new headers ctype_base.h, ctype_inline.h and 
ctype_noninline.h teach about __dj_type_cflags[] and other arrays and how
to use them. Patch to acinclude.m4 checks if system's <ctype.h> is really
a DJGPP one before using the abovementioned code.

Everything else are just infrastructure bits and stubs for things like
thread safety.
