[Libevent-users] Does anyone here still need support for MSVC prior to 2010?



I've been digging into the availability of various system interfaces
on the various OSes that are still "current" in some sense, with an
eye to reducing the amount of gunge we have to sort through in the
configure script, and something popped out at me: All non-Windows
platforms nowadays have <stdint.h>.  So do current versions of MinGW,
and MSVC 2010 and later.  Therefore, if we don't need to support MSVC
2008 or older anymore, we could get rid of all of the ev_uint*_t stuff
in <event2/util.h>.  What do y'all think?

(If you're curious about what else we might not need to be probing
for, see here: https://www.owlfolio.org/possibly-useful/notes-on-the-cross-platform-availability-of-header-files/
