Because gif_lib.h of giflib-5.0.0 assumes size_t is defined (I don't
know whether that is intended), nt/configure.bat fails to check its
availability.

In nt/config.log

Though I don't know whether Emacs supports giflib-5.0.0, the below
patch can fix the problem.  Gif support on my binaries (built by gcc
4.5.2, MinGW) has no problem with giflib-5.0.0 as far as I tested.

Thanks, I committed the change below to fix this, as trunk revision
110088, and I'm marking the bug as done.
