Hmm, https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/avr-gcc mentions 24-bit integers. Maybe
they are 24-bit integers not considered extended integer types in the
sense of the standard? Though I don't know what they'd do that; AFAIK
that only makes sense if you want something that behaves like an integer
bigger than intmax_t.
