Because DOS doesn't have case-sensitive file systems, you can't have
(for example) string.h and String.h at the same time.  So, what we did
was rename the ones with upper case to have an underscore, like
_String.h.  And the C++ headers are in lang/cxx/ (_String.h is in
lgp2952b.zip), not include/.

Note, however, that the current gcc also allows for <string> for the
C++ string class.
