The irony is D1 has std.c, and for D2 it was migrated to core.stdc.
Moving it back in an endless search for taxonomical perfection just jerks the
users around. We've done a lot of renaming in the runtime library, and an awful
lot of ink has been spilled on the subject in these forums.
But I'm not aware of a single user gained by these changes, and I suspect we've
lost a few, not because they didn't like the newer names, but because they
disliked the constant disruption of their code base.
