Nothing wrong with the long long int declaration.

However, MinGW is using Microsoft libraries, and the Microsoft libraries
doesn't understand the "%llu" formatting parameter. Instead, "%I64u" must
be used to print 64-bit numbers. Since the x86 architecture stores lowest
byte first, "%llu" becomes "%lu" and the least significant 4 bytes gets
printed and the most significant 4 bytes are left on the stack for
following printf parameter declarations to use...

probably happened with the long long int declaration.  Try declaring long
long instead of long long int for Fibonacci.  Interesting bug!
