Summary

On Linux, stddef.h will define size_t to something when size_t is
defined. On FreeBSD,
size_t is an actual typedef which we need for
other parts of the system. If size_t isn't defined, that tells us we
need to define the fallback
size_t typedef (if it is defined, then we
can't easily redefine it without issues because glob.h will define it to
something different than stddef.h defines it). Add a comment to this
effect.
