Hmmm.  There was some report very much like this a few weeks ago;
check the archives.  I think the conclusion was that gcc's "fixed"
includes didn't quite match the actual system headers, because the
complainant was using a gcc installation that had been copied verbatim
from a slightly different version of HPUX.

And indeed I note a comparable discrepancy in your report:

               ^^^^^

I'd try building a fresh gcc installation from sources, and see if the
problem goes away ...
