Yes that's a good idea. I've updated the patch to change the header instead:
The internal header include/string.h does not work in C++: it causes link errors
in several C++ debug tests when any of the functions it declares are called.
The best option would be to not use internal headers for tests (unless explicitly
needed). Add guards so that it is safe to use include/string.h from C++.
ChangeLog:

* include/string.h: Add __cplusplus check.
