xdr naming difference

Subject: xdr naming difference

glibc provides xdr_uint{8,16,32,64}_t, but while cygwin exports those
functions, the header rpc/xdr.h only declares xdr_u_int{8,16,32,64}_t
(note the extra underscore).  Likewise, the IXDR_PUT_INT32 macro is
missing.  These differences in the cygwin version tripped up compilation
of libvirt on cygwin [1].  Can we get aliases added to provide the glibc
spelling of these four functions, so we can remove the libvirt hacks?
