Except that they're highly system dependent (i.e., most systems don't
define it), so we'd better not rely on them.

We shouldn't define them, unless configure determines that they are
not defined. And even then there's risk for double definition, so
we'd better avoid it.

I mean ``what the hack is that guy doing with int8_t et al that he
couldn't do with jbyte, jshort, jint and jlong''?
