Sounds like a good idea. So I would have to include "fakes.h" (or similar)
only in the source files which I have troubles with.

BTW: I've just solved the particular problem with setenv. "setenv" *is*
defined somewhere in the Tru64 libraries, so the "configure" program
picks it up and defines HAVE_SETENV in config.h. However the prototype
in the GCC stdlib.h is only declared if AES_SOURCE is defined. I'm
now recompiling with AES_SOURCE (whatever this means) defined.
