I've just looked at it now, but I suspect that "PARSE_INT_FORMAT()"
should simply do
#define PARSE_INT_FORMAT(res, arg, unsig) \
if (long_flag) \
res = (unsig long)va_arg(arg, unsig long); \
else if (short_flag) \
res = (unsig short)va_arg(arg, unsig int); \
else \
res = (unsig int)va_arg(arg, unsig int)
as the claim that
`short int' is promoted to `int' when passed through `...'
is correct and the statement that
...you should pass `int' not `short int' to `va_arg'
is thus arguably correct.
