stdint.h is actually a fairly standard header nowadays.  I believe it
is C99:

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/stdint.h.html

So, I would recommend leaving it in and special casing the platforms on
which it breaks.  I do know that since the Mac uses gcc, this header is
likely to be there on any gcc that's ever been used on OS X.

Have fun (if at all possible),
