Indeed. This is unacceptable.

Especially as the standard types are total crap, and the u8 etc are a lot=

more readable. People should realize:

 - the "int" is superfluous. Of _course_ it's an integer. If it was a=20
   floating point number, it would be fp16/fp32/fp64/fp80/whatever.
 - the "_t" is there only for namespace collisions, sane people can chose=

   to ignore it.

What do you have left after you have removed the crap? Yup. u8, u16, etc.=

And if you want to share with user space, there's=A0the long-accepted=20
namespace collision avoidance of prepending two underscores.

Fix it, Vojtech.
