When the argument to a directive with a length modifier like %lu in a call to a GCC diagnostic function such as warning()) is not of the right integer type, GCC suggests to replace the length modifier in the directive with 'w'. For instance:
warning: format ‘%lu’ expects argument of type ‘long unsigned int’, but argument 2 has type ‘int’ [-Wformat=]
f ("%lu", 0); ~~^ %wu To issue the right hint (i.e., %u in the message above) the attached patch introduces a new format_lengths enumerator to represent the 'w' modifier. Tested on x86_64-linux. Martin
