That's a possibility.  My main preference for looking for the int32_t
family header file is that once you have one you have them all, plus it
seems simple to implement, plus I had the hope that we would find them
defined in the same place on most platforms.  If you can steal already
tested logic straight from glib, that sounds great to me.
