In user-space things are already inconsistent as we have multiple libc
implementations.  Telling every libc implementation to sync their
typedef w/o a WG14 decision will only cause "aggressive discussion" (far
more aggressive than this thread, I'd say).

If int64_t etc. were defined as builtin types since epoch, things would
be a lot easier.  But we can't change history.
