For those with corresponding C++ headers, yes.  Those .h files were deprecated
forever, but then in some more recent C++ Standard they were undeprecated but
described as being intented for use only in code that was intended to be valid
as both C and C++.

I'm thinking we might want to introduce wrappers for at least some other C
library headers, again as a shared place HotSpot-specific tailoring.  But
that's something for (possibly much) later.  First working through the C++
Standard Library headers.
