Undefining BOOST_HAS_STDINT_H will surely have a negative impact on other
Boost libraries, if they are mixed with date_time: If there is a bug in
boost/stdint.hpp or boost/config.hpp then it should be fixed, not hacked
around like this.  What was the original problem that led to this - the
regression tests are all passing for boost/stdint.hpp aren't they?
