Thats understandable.  AFAIK it doesn't exist.

DJ has written his own libc for the DJGPP project.  It has 
substantial differences from glibc.  Among the important ones is 

1) Less restrictive licensing
2) Support for most borland and microsoft non-ansi functions
3) support for other PC BIOS functions and the like.
You need to download the complete DJGPP environment.  Libc is in 
djdev I believe.  Go to www.delorie.com and there is an online
zip-picker utility which will tell you what files to download.
DJGPP files are also available from any simtelnet mirror (I prefer
ftp.digital.com, I've never gotten less than 100K per second at work).

> And also, does it have the standard include files in the archive?
Yes, those are part of the dj package.  You will also need a binutils
package, and some others as well.
