ANSI-C doesn't care if you include the same .h file twice or more (if they
contain only declarations and not definitions).  They went out of their way
(the standards-makers) to ensure this to be so.

Anyway, if you include a.h into b.h, a.h is usually make secure by nesting it
in an #ifndef:

#ifndef A_INCLUDED
#   define A_INCLUDED
... rest of a.h
#endif

<stdio.h> might have something like this in it...
