types.h is not an ANSI standard file. It contains some definitions that
are in other h files (such as time_t and size_t). It also has some
pointless typedefs such as:
	typedef unsigned char u_char;
Really, what's that worth?
It also has some unix file system specific defs that are irrelevant on
the PC.
