Fortunately that file wasn't made dependent upon haproxy since it was
integrated, better isolate it before it's too late. Its dependency on
api.h was the result of the change from config.h, which in turn wasn't
correct. It was changed back to stddef.h for size_t and sys/types.h for
ssize_t. The recently added reference to MAX() was changed as it was
placed only to avoid a zero length in the non-free-standing version and
was causing a build warning in the hpack encoder.
I found on an (old) AIX 5.1 machine that stdint.h didn't exist while
inttypes.h which is expected to include it does exist and provides the
desired functionalities.
As explained here, stdint being just a subset of inttypes for use in
freestanding environments, it's probably always OK to switch to inttypes
instead:

Also it's even clearer here in the autoconf doc :
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.61/html_node/Header-Portability.html
"The C99 standard says that inttypes.h includes stdint.h, so there's
no need to include stdint.h separately in a standard environment.
Some implementations have inttypes.h but not stdint.h (e.g., Solaris
7), but we don't know of any implementation that has stdint.h but not
inttypes.h"
This will be used initially by the hpack table and hopefully later by a
new native http processor. These headers are made of name and value, both
an immediate string (ie: pointer and length).
