I don't see anything in this man page saying that the <stdint.h> types are all typedefs, rather than new types that are distinct from the standard integer types. That seems like useful information.
Hello Jonathan, I almost missed this. We (Michael and I) chose not to give any information about typedefs in this page. So the reader should not assume that any type at all, unless explicitly specified, is a typedef. Any type could be defined however the implementation chooses to do, and this page will only give the requirements for the implementation. However, if you still think we should be clearer in this point, we might create a NOTE about this in the end of the page. Your thoughts? Thanks, Alex
