u_int32_t

[Robert Lunnon]

Seems these typedefs have found their way into some of the source files, from 
my recollection these definitions aren't used. What is the official typedef 
for these types;
IE
u_int32_t
uint32_t
or
UINT32

The C99 type is 'uint32_t' - and should be defined by inttypes.h

I didn't think we were allowed to use C99 code in wine, for
compatibility reasons (C++ style comments, etc)? Though I guess using
C99 headers would still work with pre-C99 compilers whereas C99 code
features wouldn't.

Any official word on this?

In general there's no reason to use C99 types, the Windows API has all
the types we need.
