So djgpp does have a stdprn. I guess I should have a closer look at stdio.h.

Also, speaking of system header files, the documentation for gcc refers to
a header file machine.h that doesn't exist, in connection with a flag
FRAME_POINTER_REQUIRED. (sp?)
(I searched my entire include, and then the whole djgpp directory with dir
machine.h \s. Then I did in each include directory a find "blah" *.h with
whatever the damned define name actually is.
