New submission from Hubert Holin <Hubert.Holin at free.fr>:

_decimal fails to build on my platform due to lack of support:

In file included from /Developer/Python/3.6/Python/Python-3.6.5/Modules/_decimal/_decimal.c:34:
/usr/local/include/mpdecimal.h:201:4: error: "unsupported platform: need mpd_size_t == mpd_uint_t"
  #error "unsupported platform: need mpd_size_t == mpd_uint_t"

My host system type: x86_64-apple-darwin17.5.0
My target system type: x86_64-apple-darwin17.5.0
Compiler used: clang+llvm-6.0.0-x86_64-apple-darwin
Hardware: 3,7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5

Relevant configurations:

--enable-universalsdk... /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.13.sdk
