well clang had _BitInt before it was in the standard.. which is a bit
of a problem because ppl only now realize that its abi is not what they
want so various targets try to retroactively specify the ps abi for it
which may leave existing clang broken.

in any case i think standard conformance is a good thing in musl, but
we are not in a big hurry to implement c23, and can wait until clang
and gcc converge on abi for a couple of targets.
