This was all with the latest version in Debian which is 1.2.4. > With access to an alpha, I see that problem and have a preliminary fix > in hand.

For Debian it's not a problem at all since we're all using glibc 2.3.2. However, older systems will probably not have it. C99 is more then 5 years old now, so it's not that new. However, most things in <stdint.h> are also available in things like <sys/types.h> on most systems but not all of them are. Note that that isn't part of the C standard but is part of POSIX/SUS. There is also <inttypes.h> which is part of C99 too, and includes <stdint.h>. Afaik it didn't exist in C89/C90 either and was added in C99.
