Trying to use the various functions and operators declared in <bitset>
I hit errors stating that CHAR_BIT was not defined in the scope of
c:\djgpp\lang\cxx\bitset and later that min() was implicitly declared.
Checking the headers declared in bitset I found the following

#include <stddef.h>     // for size_t
#include <string>
#include <stdexcept>    // for invalid_argument, out_of_range,
        overflow_error
#include <iostream.h>   // for istream, ostream

but only through adding these two was I able to use bitset properly

#include <limits.h>     // for CHAR_BIT
#include <minmax.h>     // for min() 

Is this, or something similar, an omission on the part of this
particular header file?
