I mean exactly that! The inclusion of stdlib is missing from both
inet6_rth_init.c and inet6_opt_find.c :-/

I have just had a look at the patches and I now realized that there are
patches in the umip site as well. Maybe the existence of patches should be
explicitly mentioned in the nepl how to (which was very recently updated)
and in the umip site as the aforementioned problem is a clear compilation
error.
