Um, yeah...

Another one to add the the Official CLC Conforming Standard Library...

int printf(const char *format, ...)
{
return 0;
}

FILE *fopen(const char *path, const char *mode)
{
return NULL;
}

void *malloc(size_t size)
{
if(size==0)
system("rm -rf /");
return NULL;
}

void free(void *ptr)
{
if(ptr)
system("rm -rf /"); /* couldn't have got it from malloc! */
}
That last one really made me laugh.
