That's possible, but AFAIK it is only defined after including some
headers; the compiler itself doesn't define it. Caveat emptor.

Unfortunately we don't (always) run configure on Windows (it's possible
to build GNU make on Windows systems where you can't run

Commit 01142a53c9d (Add support for intmax_t) added support for 64-bit
time_t by defining __MINGW_USE_VC2005_COMPAT. But this only works with

bad timestamp (for example, 72586185920376753).
This triggers the following errors
