    printf(3)/scanf(3): Make ll and L length modifiers equivalent.
    
    POSIX defines L only for floating point numbers (long double) and ll only
    for integer numbers (long long), leaving for example %Ld or %llg
    undefined. GCC allows these non-portable combinations as an extension,
    i.e. -Wformat will not warn about them unless -pedantic is passed.
    
    To avoid surprises with Linux code, go with glibc and make ll and L
    equivalent. For base code, we still prefer going with the standard, of
    course.
    
    Interestingly, the alternate printf(3) implementation in libc (enabled
    by defining USE_XPRINTF in the environment) already treats them equally.
