Haven't got around to it, I think.

We do need a solution, but I've always been a bit put off by little
headers like that, since they pollute the source.
How about if gnulib creates an <inttypes.h> that has the declarations
that the standard requires? The gnulib <inttypes.h> can look like this:
#if HAVE_INTTYPES_H
# if HAVE_INCLUDE_NEXT
# include_next <inttypes.h>
# else
# include "/full/path/to/system/include/inttypes.h"
# endif
#endif
#if HAVE_STDINT_H
# include <stdint.h>
#endif
#if !HAVE_DECL_STRTOIMAX
intmax_t strtoimax (char const *, char **, int);
#endif
I realize it's a bit of a pain to get the full path portably, but
surely it's not that hard: we can use the preprocessor and report the
first string that ends in "/inttypes.h".
