I've been assuming that, in the absence of compatibility constraints (for
example on a new architecture), it would be reasonable for hypothetical new
musl, glibc, or newlib ports to arrange to be ABI compatible at the level
of a freestanding implementation (in the C standard sense), which would
include <stdint.h>. Is this an incorrect assumption, from your perspective?
