Impressive! Now all we need is a run-time parametrisable C compiler that can use arbitrary integer sizes, so that your work can be tested.
(Actually that would be incredibly useful for portability work, if only.)

Indeed I misunderstood the text and the stdc_find_{first,last} functions look pretty useless. Good to know.
