Thanks! I finally found the problem and it's embarrassing. 

I found out that it did not detect wint_t because there was
a syntax error in generated conftest.c so it did not compile thus
the check failed (there was a garbage at the end of the .c file).

I run my Windows in VirtualBox and realized that my build directory
is on vbox "shared folder". When I tried to build on virtualized disk, 
it worked just fine. Oh my... Interestingly, I build other programs
this way for years and never encountered this. 

I'm sorry for the noise! And I'm really grateful for all hints you 
all gave me - helped me a lot!

Thanks again, 

Jan
