47 * To get prototypes for the following POSIXish functions, you have to
48 * include the indicated non-POSIX headers. The functions are defined
49 * in OLDNAMES.LIB (MSVC) or -lmoldname-msvc (mingw32). But note that
50 * for POSIX functions that take or return file names in the system
51 * codepage, in many cases you would want to use the GLib wrappers in
52 * gstdio.h and UTF-8 instead.
