Description
For 2.6 there are build errors on x86 (i586) and arm32 (armv7hf):
```

```
Perhaps `%zu` should be used? Or you should not have used `size_t` for counters in the first place, as `size_t` is intended for [maximum object (array) sizes](https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/types/size_t) (i.e. maximum sizeof value), and obviously this on 32-platforms is 32-bit number.
