The test case libs/integer/cstdint_test.cpp includes <cassert> and
<iostream> _before_ it defines __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS. This means that on
a platform that (a) supports defining the C99 macros in <stdint.h> when
__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS is defined and (b) uses <stdint.h> somewhere in
<iostream>, the test fails, because __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS has been
defined too late for <stdint.h> header to react (because it presumably has
include guards).
I believe the test case is wrong, and we should apply the patch below. Ok?
