At least in user-space code (I don't know if kernel-space is special), at

string.h

Not this one, at least on Solaris. It collides with <sys/systm.h> if _KERNEL is defined.

I found this out this evening after testing the string.h patch from Sean (thanks Sean!)

sys/systm.h is completely wrapped in a _KERNEL ifdef, and breaks the compilation of xdr_array.c if string.h is also included. The colliding prototype is for ffs:

sys/systm.h:  int ffs(long)
string.h:     int ffs(int)
