Re: [PATCH] newlib-stdint.h: Remove 32 bit longs

The reproduction is straightforward.  Just build any cross gcc with
--enable-newlib (e.g. the one in the Zephyr SDK) and compile this
(on any 32 or 64 bit 2's complement architecture) with newlib's
headers.

    #include <stdint.h>

    extern void takes_fmt(const char *fmt, ...)
        __attribute__ ((format (printf, 1, 2)));

    void foo()
    {
        int32_t x = 42;
        takes_fmt("%d", x);
    }



Let me boil this down:
That code is _wrong_. Trying to base any decision on its behaviour can only be wrong, too.
