digitalmars.D.learn - dstep problem: "fatal error: 'limits.h' file not found"

reply Joseph Rushton Wakeling <joseph.wakeling webdrake.net> writes:
I've just built and installed dstep (on Ubuntu 15.10, using 
libclang-3.7) but whenever I try to run it on a header file, I 
run into the error message:

File(8AC8E0, "")/usr/include/limits.h:123:16: fatal error: 
'limits.h' file not found

I suspect this is a libclang problem, but does anyone have any 
advice how to address it?

It appears to be occurring in these lines in 
/usr/include/limits.h:

     #if defined __GNUC__ && !defined _GCC_LIMITS_H_
     /* `_GCC_LIMITS_H_' is what GCC's file defines.  */

     #endif

Hmm, I was pretty sure I fixed this, but perhaps not for that file. 
Please report an issue. In the meantime there's a workaround in the 
documentation [1], second paragraph, perhaps not very clear though.

OK, I'll do that this evening once I've had an opportunity to 
check the workaround etc.  Thanks!

Of course, a pull request is even more welcome. Should be very simple to 
fix.
