Why is stdint.h so little used?

Hi all,

I see that grub has an stdint.h header in
grub-core/lib/posix_wrap/stdint.h. But hardly any code use it. Why is
that?

When projects have these custom types (e.g. grub_uint32_t) it just
makes porting more difficult IMHO. I'm currently working on a xHCI
driver for GRUB, and I'd like to use stdint.h types (where
appropriate). Any objections?

Best regards,
Bjørn Forsman
