I didn't anticipate that a simple integer type fix turns out to be that controversial. The Newlib MR is actually linked to this MR, see the `Depends on 1 merge request being merged` status after the summary. I lost a bit track how RTEMS is developed and thought this is probably the way to link depending MRs. I will keep easing the review process in mind next time.
