Description

This bug also breaks depended ports like avrdude.

It seems that the default include files in BigSur changed so that functions from stdlib.h are not automatically included by stdio.h anymore. I think the configure tests can be fixed by simply adding #include <stdlib.h> (but i don't know how to change/patch a port...).

Summary: libelf @0.8.13.2 fails to configure on BigSur 11.0.1libelf @0.8.13.2: implicit declaration of function

In Xcode 12 Apple changed implicit declaration of function from a warning to an error. It does indeed need to be fixed as you suggest, including the headers that declare the functions that are being used. This problem affects many, many ports.
