Subject: Incorrect #ifdefs in <stdlib.h>

In case this hasn't been reported to death already ...

In djgpp 1.12, there are two incorrect #ifdefs in "include/stdlib.h".
Both of them read:

    #ifdef _cplusplus

but both of them should read:

    #ifdef __cplusplus

In other words, "__cplusplus" is misspelled with only 1 leading underscore,
when it should have two leading underscores.

The bug prevents certain library functions, such as div() and ldiv(),
from begin declared as ``extern "C"'' functions, resulting in undefined
symbols at link time.
