It's discussed, and a solution proposed, here:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2465.pdf

Quoting the problem description section:

    The interaction between the definition of extended integer types and
    [u]intmax_t has resulted in a lack of extensibility for existing
    ABI. Platforms that have anchored their specifications for the basic
    integer types and for [u]intmax_t cannot add an extended integer type
    that is wider than their current [u]intmax_t to their specification. As
    the current text of the C standard stands, such an addition would
    force a redefinition of [u]intmax_t to the wider types. This would
    have the following consequences
    - The parts of the C library that use [u]intmax_t (specific 
      functions but also printf and related functions) must be
      rewritten or recompiled with the new ABI and become binary
      incompatible with existing programs.
    - Programs compiled with the new ABI would be binary incompatible 
      on platforms that have not been upgraded.
    - The preprocessor of the implementation must be re-engineered 
      to comply with the standard. In particular, there would be
      severe specification problems for preprocessor numbers and
      their evaluation. E.g., the value of ULLONG_MAX+1 is not
      expressible as a literal in the language proper but would
      be for the preprocessor. The expression ULLONG_MAX+1 would
      evaluate to true in a preprocessor conditional but to 0
      (false) in later compilation phases.
