I am not really sure what a "vanilla" set of C headers would be, since
they must contain a large number of implementation-specific values.
Consider <limits.h>, <float.h>, and <stdio.h>, if not others, even
among the C90 headers. They all contain macros with values that are
not specified by the C standard, although certain limitations are
specified for some.
The most vanilla way, I suppose, would be to go through the
environment and library section of the standard, whatever version you
want to work with. All of the required function prototypes for each
header are there, as well as description of the macros and type
definitions that must be incor****ated.
