BYO - Bring your own :-) Bring a libc. Bring a make. Bring a shell.
Bring half of the POSIX toolbox.
As for header inclusion, no explicit rule was stated. But it was (and
still is, AFAICT) not the "headers don't include headers" rule but the
approach preferred by most of the participants in this thread, basically
include whatever you need when you need it.
I really wonder what (big) projects would benefit from IWYU (which I
understand now to be not exactly equivalent to "headers don't include
headers"). Mozilla, I'm told, is experimenting with it. It could
possibly do wonders to {Libre,Open,Star,*)Office on the compile-time
front.
Regards,
Jens
