To have include files >that actually work according to POSIX? POSIX generally specifies including <sys/types.h> yourself. The rpc headers are not specified by POSIX. What I want is all include files to work according to ANSI-extended-to-cover-all-include-files. In particular, include files should neither depend on each other nor declare each others symbols (either by including each other or directly), except for a few well documented warty cases like `size_t'.
