I think that we should wrap crappy old platforms and don't punish modern one 
(not vice versa).

So AC_PROG_CC_C99 in configure.ac

if x = xno; then
 AC_DEFINE(MY_COMPILER_IS_A_CRAP)
fi

and 
#ifndef MY_COMPILER_IS_A_CRAP
#include <stdint.h>
#endif

type of solution. Does that work for you?

About " If you want to externally include this argv.h" - I don't but rpm*.h 
headers do that for me.
