Gnulib also provides a portable PRIuMAX, so that you could do this, if you
don't want to commit to providing multiple buffers to umaxtostr:
sprintf("%"PRIuMAX" %s", (uintmax_t) ino, name);
And gettext 0.15 understands PRIuMAX, converting it as needed on various
platforms, if you intend to internationalize your program.
