Well, I tried to '#undef HAVE_STDINT_H' in the config.h.in.in file, but
Jim said it must be '#define HAVE_STDINT_H 1' which implies that such
a file exists. I need to know what pathname it is as there is a 

#if @HAVE_STDINT_H@
  /* Other systems may have an incomplete <stdint.h>.  */
# include @FULL_PATH_STDINT_H@
#endif

which will be turned into

#if 1
  /* Other systems may have an incomplete <stdint.h>.  */
# include 
#endif

otherwise. Right now, I have a 

        sed -e 's/@''HAVE_STDINT_H''@/0/g' \

in the Makefile.am that generated the stdint.h as a sloppy work-around,
but really that just makes me uneasy.

I doubt it. To be perfectly honest, I suspect that there is some other
problem with the HAVE_STDINT_H macro that Jim has not found yet.

The GNULIB folks fixed m4/stdint.m4 and lib/alloca_.h per my bug report,
so I am running a few quick checks and then I'll commit the refresh of
GNULIB which I hope will get us closer to an SGI build that works.
