My strong preference is to just predefine: __INT8_T__ __INT16_T__ __INT32_T__ __INT64_T__ __UINT8_T__ __UINT16_T__ __UINT32_T__ __UINT64_T__ __INTMAX_T__ __INTPTR_T__ __UINTMAX_T__ __UINTPTR_T__ etc. Along with all the rest of the predefined bits here: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Common-Predefined-Macros.html That way we get to avoid playing games with include file defines, which will just get as ratty as stddef.h over time. -benjamin -benjamin
