Fixed width integer types? :)

I've been ripping off software from boost to generate them at compile time using
template metaprogramming junk.  It works on LP32 and LP64 systems so far that
I've tested but it'd just be nicer if the standard would specify types

There is a really decent book on dealing with a bunch of C++
annoyances [if you must]
called Imperfect C++ that lists a bunch of problems and workarounds.
