Okay, that's fair, but the vendor-specific type for my Windows example is spelled `DWORD`. I'm really worried that this special case will become a precedent and we'll wind up with -Wformat being relaxed for everything based on the same rationale. If that's how the community wants -Wformat to work, cool, but I'd like to know if we're intending to change (what I see as) the design of this warning.
