That looks like the culprit, yes.  This is part of the newlib changes to
stdint.h/inttypes.h, and this is apparently a problem.  Just because
long is a 32 bit type doesn't mean it's the base type of int32_t/uint32_t.
What bugs me most is that I tried to test the changes and failed to see
this problem.  Grr.

I'll discuss this on the newlib mailing list.


Thanks,
Corinna
