That would be wonderful.

It would be especially nice if everything targeting user space
were to use only all the nice standard ISO C99 types as defined
in include/stdint.h such as uint32_t and friends...
Absolutely not. This would be a POSIX namespace violation; they
*must* use double-underscore types.
I would actually be more inclined to provide and use types like
_kabi_{s,u}{8,16,32,64}, etc. Then the glibc/klibc/etc authors would
have the option of just doing "typedef _kabi_u32 uint32_t;" in their
header files.
They have to be *double-underscore*.
We have that. They're called __[su]{8,16,32,64}.
