Those other things are either in stddef.h or specific to Bolrand and
not available anywhere else (coreleft).  In the latter case, the
problem is not the header, but the absence of the functions in the
library.

So if the OP is porting the program to DJGPP, he needs to stop using
non-portable functions, and _then_ stdlib.h and stddef.h will be
enough.

DJGPP is not GNU, it's a separate project.  And its library is not the
GNU C library, it was written from scratch, specifically for the DJGPP
project.
