Yeah, but I had an impression that git-compat-util.h was not in use
to build compat/regex/regex.o (regex.c #include's regcomp.c which is
a rather unusual arragement), and that was why I am wondering.

Yes, that explains how the old one worked and the new one didn't
without dropping "#ifdef HAVE_STDINT_H".

Thanks.
