Integer library on HP-UX

In porting some of my code to HP-UX 10.20, I discovered
<sys/_inttypes.h>.  This file appears to get included at some point by
limits.h or perhaps by the compiler (gcc 2.95.2).  In any case,
_inttypes has all the typedefs that would be in stdint.h.  So I've added
the following code to config.hpp:

//  begin platform specific portion
------------------------------------------//
# if hpux
#   define BOOST_SYSTEM_HAS__INTTYPES_H
# endif //HPUX

//  end of platform specific portion
-----------------------------------------//

and changed boost/stdint.h like so:

#ifdef BOOST_SYSTEM_HAS_STDINT_H
#include <stdint.h>

#elif defined BOOST_SYSTEM_HAS__INTTYPES_H
#include <sys/_inttypes.h>

#else
.
.
.

My other thought was that we could make a macro to represent the include
for the file with the typedefs we're looking for?  I don't know that
much about macros, but it seems possible.
