This seems wrong.  Including e.g. stdlib.h shouldn't pull in
stdint.h.  There's likely standards language forbidding this but
I don't have it right here.  Glibc used to have such issues.
Such bleed is not helpful to users; they should need to include
the right headers, not just a random header when needing
e.g. uint32_t.

Right, it affects only margin cases, but those exist.  See for
example gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/20050922-1.c and -2.c on the 4.7
and 4.8 branch (they might be "fixed" soon to not define
uint32_t).
