That's a small detail that yes, we've tried to avoid the absolute

'PRId*' mess, but honestly, it's just a tiny detail.
I've not yet implemented it for glibc or for GCC format checking, but C23 
adds 'wN' format length modifiers so you will be able to e.g. use "%w64d" 
with printf to print an int64_t and won't need those PRI macros any more.
