Is this going in the right direction, though?

Why shouldn't programmers be able to write %d in the format string and
print _BitInt arguments this way?

I think it's time to pass a type descriptor for varags functions.  Then
it wouldn't be necessary to pass the _BitInt size as argument to
va_arg_bitint.
