Yeah. Note in particular the convention to avoid using those in
translatable strings. Where necessary, we manage that by using
sprintf(INT64_FORMAT) into a buffer variable and then printing
the buffer with %s in the translatable message. Grotty, but there
seems no other way that doesn't result in platform-dependent
translatable strings.
