>Description:

The program below doesn't compile: it appears that when used after
an #include <cstring>, then #include <string.h> doesn't get the
names injected into std::, as required by the standard.

gcc 2.95 compiles the example below without complaint, so this
could be considered a regression.

Reversing the order of the inclusions below makes the example
compile, as does adding a `using namespace std;'.  (Note, however,
that if one does _both_ of these, one gets a complaint about an ambiguous
call to strchr.)

>How-To-Repeat:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <cstring>
#include <string.h>

const char* foo (const char* s)
{
  return strchr (s, 'a');
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

$ g++ -c x.cc
x.cc: In function `const char* foo(const char*)':
x.cc:6: `strchr' undeclared (first use this function)
x.cc:6: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it 
   appears in.)
