So answering your main question:

Is max(a,b) defined in stdlib.h or not?

No it isn't, it's defined in windef.h around line 187:

#ifndef NOMINMAX

#ifndef max
#define max(a,b)            (((a) > (b)) ? (a) : (b))
#endif

#ifndef min
#define min(a,b)            (((a) < (b)) ? (a) : (b))
#endif

#endif  /* NOMINMAX */
