Bug#582698: libc6-dev: INTMAX_MAX definition yields build failure in 32-bit C90 mode though intmax_t is supported

No, that would be incorrect, as when __WORDSIZE isn't 64,
/usr/include/stdint.h defines:
__extension__
typedef long long int intmax_t;
__extension__
typedef unsigned long long int uintmax_t;
i.e. intmax_t and uintmax_t are still 64 bits.
INTMAX_MAX and so on should match the intmax_t and uintmax_t
definitions.
BTW, notice that the fact that intmax_t and uintmax_t are 64 bits
is against the principle that unsigned long is the largest integer
type in C90. So, perhaps this shouldn't be hidden by __extension__
above (this would solve the problem in another way).
