In Mesos sources we use c-style C headers (<stdlib.h>), as opposed to
c++-style (<cstdlib>). C++11 Standard 17.6.1.2 p4, p8, and reference 177
hint that cname is a preferred form for C++ programs. However this may
require adding std prefix everywhere, since according to the Standard cname
headers may not provide its declarations and definitions within the global
namespace (C++11 Standard D.5 p3).

Basically, we have three options here:
1. Leave the status quo and stick to C-style headers.
2. Create a clean-up JIRA and follow up with the cleanup.
3. Start using cname headers with std prefix and do a smooth transition.

Thoughts?
