State-Changed-Why:
    You'll have to actually submit a testcase. "Any file that includes <limits> doesn't hack it, at least
    
    #include <limits>
    
    compiles fine for me.......

Compiling any program that includes (at some point in the include-chain) std_limits.h fails to do so because there are some conflicts with min/max.


I'm sure there is a more sane fix than the below fix but it at least make my programs compile...
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile any program that include std_limits.h
>Fix:
std_limits.h:897:

#ifdef min
#undef min
#endif
#ifdef max
#undef max
#endif

      static _Tp min() throw() { return static_cast<_Tp>(0); }
      static _Tp max() throw() { return static_cast<_Tp>(0); }
