GCC does not warn for this:
int main()
{
wprintf (L"%s", 5);
}
GCC should try converting the string to single-byte (e.g. to UTF-8, which would
work for any wchar_t encoding in which 0-127 maps to char's encoding) and test
the format string.

Subject: Re: -Wformat does not work for wide strings
In view of the removal of c4x support I don't now think any patch for this
needs to address the format of STRING_CSTs for non-8-bit target bytes.
But it should still have appropriate accessors for extracting bytes /
multibyte characters / wide characters from strings (such that support for
non-8-bit target bytes could be added to those accessors later), though
without necessarily finding all existing code that should be using those
accessors.
See also bug 20110 on the format checking not allowing for the execution
character set once it's extracted a character from the string. For wide
characters it's -fwide-exec-charset that's relevant.
