I think the answer is `yes'...

... but the prototypes that did not exist before fixincludes etc are only
defined if either __USE_FIXED_PROTOTYPES__, __cplusplus or __STRICT_ANSI__
are defined.  In some objc file, I defined __USE_FIXED_PROTOTYPES__
before including stdlib.h to get the prototypes for malloc and friends.
