    Visual C++ 2008 support: Add note in README.txt
    
    Tell people that they need to get a stdint.h implementation for Visual C++
    2008 for use with Cogl-master/1.99.x+, and where they can obtain such an
    implementation.
    
    This is not needed for Visual C++ 2010 as it ships with stdint.h by
    default.
    
    (cherry picked from commit 938d70b78d672dd07e7124f7573d17d3e3079365)

+As Cogl 1.99.x and later will now use C99 types in lieu of GLib types, a
+compatible implementation of stdint.h for Visual C++ is required, such
+as the one from http://code.google.com/p/msinttypes/, so one would need

+into <root>\vs9\<PlatformName>\include or somewhere where it can be
+automatically found by the compiler.  Note that Visual C++ 2010 and later
+ships with stdint.h, so it is only required for Visual C++ 2008 builds.

 If building the SDL winsys is desired, you will also need the SDL libraries
 from www.libsdl.org-building the SDL source package with Visual C++ 2008
 is recommended (working Visual C++ 2005 projects are included with it, upgrade
