No, I am not.  I did not say that there is no trick (using an extra
non-C89 header file and a convoluted syntax) to print an int64_t.  I
said that printf has no modifier for int64_t, while it has one for long
long. That is what I mean by "better support" for long long.


See next example:

void foo (void) {
  printf("%" PRId32  " %lld", (int64_t)9, (long int)10);
}

temp.c:7: warning: format ‘%d’ expects type ‘int’, but argument 2 has type ‘long long int’
temp.c:7: warning: format ‘%lld’ expects type ‘long long int’, but argument 3 has type ‘long int’

Why the message is not "format ‘%PRId32’ expects type ‘int32_t’,
but argument 2 has type ‘int64_t’ ?
