I'm guessing you found them with something like: git grep '^#include' '*.h' '*.c' | sort | uniq -d and then looking over the output (it has many false positives because sometimes includes are found in multiple conditionals). There's one more in compat/regex/regex.h, where we include stddef.h unconditionally, but also if HAVE_STDDEF_H is defined (which I think we'd never set ourselves). The conditional bit comes from upstream, I think, via d18f76dccf (compat/regex: use the regex engine from gawk for compat, 2010-08-17). The unconditional one is from just after that, in a997bf423d (compat/regex: get the gawk regex engine to compile within git, 2010-08-17). It's probably best to leave it as-is, since the "clean" fix would be to remove the unused conditional, but that takes us further from upstream, which would be a pain if we ever want to re-import a new version. So I think your patch covers all of the cases we'd want to fix. -Peff
