When compiling this on MSYS2 UCRT64 with current mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-gcc 12.2.0-10, gcc and g++ results differ:

#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>

#if !(defined(_UCRT) && !__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO)
#warning unexpected configuration
#endif

void f(size_t s, uint64_t u)
{
  // gcc: No warning
  // g++: "unknown conversion type character 'z' ..."
  printf("%zu", s);
  // gcc: "format '%u' expects argument of type 'unsigned int', ..."
  // g++: No warning
  printf("%I64u", u);
}

This shows that gcc defaults to format 'gnu_printf' but g++ defaults to format 'ms_printf'.

Is this difference intentional, a MSYS2 packaging issue (i.e. wrong build parameters, incomplete local patch, ...) or a GCC upstream bug?

Would not be a problem if gcc/g++ would allow to override this attribute for its builtins.

If !(defined(_UCRT) && !__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO), the problem does not occur because printf() is a wrapper function which hides the builtin.
