This is mostly true. The Toolkit headers supplied with the the current
version of Watcom are not 100% complete relative to those supplied with
the OS/2 Toolkit.
The solution, as you suspect is to use the is to use the OS/2 Toolkit
headers. Watcom like most other compilers understands the INCLUDE
environment variable. Set this up so that the Toolkit include directories
appear first and you should get a clean compile.
The Watcom C/C++ User's Guide explains the gory details.
You might still get some link errors. If you you will need to locate the
import libraries that define the missing symbols and specify them to the
link instructions.

Well, it this was the case, you would not be getting errors.
I recommend you use a cmd cmd file to initialize the variables and invoke
the IDE. This will make you testing go much faster.
