Is it intentional for all of the stdc pages to be empty?

It's a somewhat unfortunate fallout of the level of granularity. I think
each of these headers should include a standard text and a link to some
good documentation in C-land. -- Andrei

I like this idea.

One thing that may be misleading about this -- our headers don't include
*everything* from C-land.

What would be a good generic blurb? strawman:

core.stdc.ctype:
"This contains bindings to selected types and functions from the
standard C header <ctype.h> (see
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/ctype.h.html).
Note that this is not automatically generated, and may omit some
types/functions from the original C header."

I'm thinking we should actually just put a /// before every symbol, to
get it in the ddoc so you can see what *is* included.

Thoughts? I can put together a pull for core.stdc.* if it makes sense.

Blurb LGTM, please make it happen. Also let's experiment with the ///'s. If we get real cocky we might insert for each symbol a LUCKY link googling for the header name and symbol name. Thanks! -- Andrei
