Re: [64bit] type conflict for INT32

/usr/include/jmorecfg.h (from libjpeg-devel-1.2.1-1) contains

Aside from the fact that this produces a confusing name for a 64-bit

Per the comment there: "INT32 must hold *at least* signed 32-bit values" (emphasis mine).

it conflicts with /usr/include/w32api/basetsd.h, which has

   typedef signed int INT32

This causes a problem for the build of emacs-w32.

Fortunately, the code doesn't seem to care about consistency in this type. Even on Linux, when itself is compiled for x86-64 this will be a 64-bit signed type, but when the header is used in conjunction with X11 headers (which have a typedef int INT32;), jmorecfg.h uses that and skips its own typedef.

So it would seem we could do the same with w32api:

=== BEGIN ===
--- /usr/include/jmorecfg.h
+++ /usr/include/jmorecfg.h
@@ -161,4 +161,6 @@
 #ifndef XMD_H			/* X11/xmd.h correctly defines INT32 */
+#ifndef _BASETSD_H_		/* w32api defines this in basetsd.h */
 typedef long INT32;
 #endif
+#endif

=== END ===

It does mean that Win32API (or X11, for that matter) headers must be #include'd before <jpeglib.h>. Before I spin a new release, could you test if this works with emacs?
