Yes, I've noticed the same thing, viz:

    ramsay (pu)$ find /mingw/include -type f | xargs egrep 'strto(imax|umax|ull)'
    /mingw/include/inttypes.h:intmax_t __cdecl __MINGW_NOTHROW strtoimax (const char
    * __restrict__ nptr,
    /mingw/include/inttypes.h:uintmax_t __cdecl __MINGW_NOTHROW strtoumax (const cha
    r* __restrict__ nptr,
    /mingw/include/stdlib.h:unsigned long long  __cdecl __MINGW_NOTHROW strtoull (co
    nst char* __restrict__, char** __restrict__, int);

    ramsay (pu)$ nm /mingw/lib/libmingwex.a | egrep 'strto(imax|umax|ull)'
    strtoimax.o:
    00000000 T _strtoimax
    strtoumax.o:
    00000000 T _strtoull
    00000000 T _strtoumax

    ramsay (pu)$

So, I assume, an earlier version of MinGW did not have the inttypes.h header
file and the NO_STRTOUMAX etc. settings are stale; dunno ;-)

In any event, I guess an '#include <inttypes.h>' on MinGW will be part of the
solution. [Without breaking the MSVC build, of course; see the NO_INTTYPES_H
make variable.] However, I haven't given it too much thought, so take that with
a bucket of salt!

Note, also, that very similar comments apply to NO_LIBGEN_H; viz:

    ramsay (pu)$ find /mingw/include -type f | xargs egrep 'char \*(dir|base)name'
    /mingw/include/libgen.h:extern __cdecl __MINGW_NOTHROW char *basename (char *);
    /mingw/include/libgen.h:extern __cdecl __MINGW_NOTHROW char *dirname  (char *);

    ramsay (pu)$ nm /mingw/lib/libmingwex.a | egrep '(dir|base)name'
    basename.o:
    00000000 T _basename
    dirname.o:
    00000000 T _dirname

    ramsay (pu)$

[having said that, I have a patch that adds a compat/dirname.c and modifies
the existing compat/basename.c; the MinGW dirname()/basename() functions 
have problems.]
