Even the self-include often depends on other files for data type
definitions. It could even depend on the standard library for some types
and constants.

I am absolutely not suggesting that lwIP should change because of this
little incompatibility with my compiler environment.
If it should change, then it has to be for other reasons. One potential
reason could be that having the standard library includes first would be
according to dependency order.
