Subject: anyone else working on %b?

i've wanted %b (along with 0b literals) for decades now, and i'm
wondering if anyone else already has %b implemented, so i can use that
as precedent to justify shipping bionic's implementation before the
standard is final?

in particular i'm worried about a circular dependency with the
compilers' format string checking, and someone has to go first.

also: thoughts on whether you plan on supporting %B too? (is anyone
already using %B for anything else?) in the absence of a
counterargument, i'm assuming we should implement %B just for the 0b
versus 0B with #?
