Very odd.  I also have the #include <stddef.h>  in sys/_types.h  but no 
such file exists on my system.
But I don't get this error, so the conditionals in this header don't 
fire on my system.  I'm using gcc 4.7.3.

I don't really understand how these system header files are supposed to 
interact.  You could try creating a dummy stddef.h in /usr/include .
