Patch: Change from configure time to compile time probe for intptr_t, definition.

[Corinna Vinschen]

Hi Joel,

The patch looks good... almost.  No worries, it's my fault:

It occured to me that this is not without danger.  Assuming you're using
a compiler ignoring the push_macro/pop_macro pragmas, then the above
macro definitions of signed, int and long will prevail from this point
on.  Therefore, to be really sure, another set of #undef's should be
inserted here:

  #undef signed
  #undef int
  #undef long

> +#pragma pop_macro("signed")
> +#pragma pop_macro("int")
> +#pragma pop_macro("long") 
>  #endif /* __SYS_CONFIG_H__ */

With that change, ok to push.


Thanks,
Corinna
