The <stdint.h> file on my Linux box uses the _t syntax.  It appears to be,
er, standard.

I am curious to know how we make use of these types in a cross-platform way.
I assume it's some autoconf tests or somesuch.  I'm just interested in the
details.  I figure we have to test for the existence of <stdint.h> and/or
test for [u]int[8
|16|32|64]_t and define them ourselves if they don't exist.

Am I close?
