Description Tim Singletary 1996-01-27 20:10:02 UTC 
stdlib.h references size_t, yet doesn't define this name.  stdlib.h
should probably #include sys/types.h

Fix: 

stdlib.h should #include sys/types.h

No, size_t is declared on line 42 of stdlib.h if it isn't already declared.

>>Fix:
>stdlib.h should #include sys/types.h

No, sys/types.h declares many other things that aren't supposed to be
declared by stdlib.h.

It does, via _BSD_SIZE_T and <machine/ansi.h>.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)

Looks like false alarm.
