* On Windows, ``Python.h`` no longer includes the ``<stddef.h>`` standard
header file. If needed, it should now be included explicitly. For example, it
provides ``offsetof()`` function, and ``size_t`` and ``ptrdiff_t`` types.
Including ``<stddef.h>`` explicitly was already needed by all other
platforms, the ``HAVE_STDDEF_H`` macro is only defined on Windows.
