Even a freestanding compiler implementation is required to provide these
headers, and using the compiler versions would avoid unexpected mismatches
(e.g. for builtins). So I don't think the justification as written makes sense.
Is this because the next patch removes the stdinc paths, and so we don't get
the compiler's implementation of these headers?
Thanks,
Mark.
