7 months ago It looks like this comes with the additional requirement to specify format strings for these types in inttypes.h. That will be difficult without getting really creative with the printf format string; we can probably do it, but it will be difficult. Accordingly, bumping this down to p3; _Bitint suffices for now, as it makes it explicit that it's an extension, not a natively-supported integer type as defined by the C standard.
It looks (cursorily) like we're within our rights to establish 24-bit integer types in stdint.h. The
_BitInt(24)extension for this isn't very well known, and it's come up a few times that this is a desirable type, so we should look into making it work the same way as the other stdint types.
