I think for the purpose of highlighting it's best to accept all possible
formats.  I can add the new C99 things, although I would discourage
everybody to use them for portabilitity reasons.

Your proposed line is missing a few things, e.g., "f".

For C99 (when c_no_c99 does not exist) we can probably use this:

        \([hlLjzt]\|ll\|hh\)\=\([aAbdiuoxXDOUfFeEgGcCsSpn]\
