Does anyone know why the C standards body went with the solution of those weird PRIu64 macros instead of a new format specifier like %j or whatever?

My google-fu is weak, can’t even locate a copy of the C99 standard that might maybe mention what this is for.

I submitted a PR to update MacPorts' version of @grunfink' snac to 2.28 here:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/18390

CI/build bot checks passed!

It's up to someone else to merge it.

I am doing some tests on an embedded system with a very old version of Debian and GCC, I need tips on software that can compile on that system without much nonsense of requiring current versions of GCC or some LIBS, for now I have compiled the latest version of LUA.

Please boost!
