  My tests showed the removal of internal uses of <cstdint> from
stdlibc++ usually manifests in complaints about unqualified types like
"uint8_t", rather than "std::uint8_t" (and unfortunately the fix-it
hint gets this wrong; see PR c++/110930).

I've taken the liberty of pushing this patch to the website to
recommend <stdint.h> rather than <cstdint>

Hope this wording is an improvement.
Dave
