I think _INTPTR_T_DEFINED is still being used, but only by MinGW64.  I
use mingw.org's MinGW, where that macro was never used.

However, both MinGW flavors typedef intptr_t as 'int', not 'long int',
on 32-bit platforms.

It does here, thanks.  I hope someone will be able to make sure
MinGW64 builds are not adversely affected (I don't think they should
be).

I have no opinion on this, but I'd like to hear from Daniel (CC'ed)
what he thinks.
