std::size_t is defined by <cstddef>, so the correct fix if you want to
use size_t is to explicitly include either <stddef.h> (for ::size_t)
or <cstddef> (for std::size_t)
Otherwise some other change to the Standard Library could cause the
same problem again. If you use a type, include the header that
declares it.
