gcc include /usr/include/algorithm

I am starting to dig deeper into gcc compiles using ibmichroot. My current en devour is compiling node-inspector. I eventually hope to combine the steps I take into a xxxx.lst file (probably the gcc one).

To compile Node.js modules the following are needed:

Python 2.7 (perzl)
gcc (perzl)

The compile goes fine until I get to other includes, like algorithm.

$ npm install node-inspector

> v8-profiler@5.3.2 preinstall /home/USRAB3L5/nodejs_sqlite3/node_modules/node-inspector/node_modules/v8-profiler
>  


> v8-debug@0.5.4 preinstall /home/USRAB3L5/nodejs_sqlite3/node_modules/node-inspector/node_modules/v8-debug
>  

npm WARN optional dep failed, continuing default-browser-id@1.0.2

> utf-8-validate@1.2.1 install /home/USRAB3L5/nodejs_sqlite3/node_modules/node-inspector/node_modules/ws/node_modules/utf-8-validate
> node-gyp rebuild

gmake: Entering directory '/home/USRAB3L5/nodejs_sqlite3/node_modules/node-inspector/node_modules/ws/node_modules/utf-8-validate/build'
  CXX(target) Release/obj.target/validation/src/validation.o
In file included from ../src/validation.cc:15:0:
../node_modules/nan/nan.h:48:21: fatal error: algorithm: No such file or directory
 #include <algorithm>

So I went searching and found /QSYS.LIB/QSYSINC.LIB/STD.FILE/ALGORITHM.MBR and copied it to the IFS similar to what we do for ruby-ibm_db:

$ system -v "CPY OBJ('/QSYS.LIB/QSYSINC.LIB/STD.FILE/ALGORITHM.MBR') TODIR('/usr/include') TOCCSID(*STDASCII) DTAFMT(*TEXT) REPLACE(*YES)"
$ mv /usr/include/ALGORITHM.MBR /usr/include/algorithm

Copy and rename (mv) is successful. I run the install again and get errors from the algorithm include.

      ^

I am not sure if I can copy the algorithm file to here without it being illegal, but there is a lot of interesting stuff in the top of it (i.e. significantly indented 'if' statements with question marks in front of them).

##Should I be pulling includes from somewhere else?
