include <cstdlib> not found

This sample program here https://os.mbed.com/users/pierrebizouard/code/DISCO-F429ZI_LCDTS_demo_richard/ can compile successfully using the Online Web Compiler, and I can download the .bin file to my STM32 DISCOVERY board. It runs and all. Great.

But if I try to clone this demo program locally to my computer using mbed import https://os.mbed.com/users/pierrebizouard/code/DISCO-F429ZI_LCDTS_demo_richard/

and setup mbed target and mbed toolchain for my device, the "demo_richard" program above refuses to compile.

The compiler reports that this line

1. include <cstdlib> is the problem, and file not found. This line is present in the /BSP/STM32F429ZI-Discovery/stmf429i_discovery_lcd.c

For kicks, I tried commenting this line, and the program then compiles successfully but the uploaded .bin to my devboard does not run.

I'm a newb here, and tried googling and search for fix to this problem but I'm just stumped.

What am I missing? How can this program compile successfully using the Online compiler but fails to compile using mbed-cli.

Any help/point to the right direction is highly appreciated.
