This is the UB I'm experiencing:

The first run is wrong, and the second one is correct.  The relevant 
printf(3) lines are:


            printf("....----....----....----....----\n");
            printf("%llb;\n", 0x5Ellu);
            printf("%lB;\n", 0x5Elu);
            printf("%b;\n", 0x5Eu);
            printf("%hB;\n", 0x5Eu);
            printf("%hhb;\n", 0x5Eu);
            printf("%jb;\n", (uintmax_t)0x5E);
            printf("%zb;\n", (size_t)0x5E);
            printf("....----....----....----....----\n");
            printf("%#b;\n", 0x5Eu);


Cheers,

Alex
