What's the recommended way to built-in define types like __uint24 ?

Since v4.8, the avr backend has:

avr-modes.def:
  FRACTIONAL_INT_MODE (PSI, 24, 3);

avr.cc:
  tree int24_type  = make_signed_type (GET_MODE_BITSIZE (PSImode));
  tree uint24_type = make_unsigned_type (GET_MODE_BITSIZE (PSImode));
  lang_hooks.types.register_builtin_type (int24_type, "__int24");
  lang_hooks.types.register_builtin_type (uint24_type, "__uint24");

Which

1) Doesn't support [un]signed __int24.

2) May run into ICEs like:
  FAIL: gcc.target/avr/torture/int24-mul.c   -O3 -g
  (internal compiler error: in add_dwarf_attr, at dwarf2out.cc:4483)
  FAIL: gcc.target/avr/torture/pr109907-2.c   -O3 -g
  (internal compiler error: in decompose, at rtl.h:2312)

3) __GLIBCXX_TYPE_INT_N_0 isn't defined (or has to be done by hand).
  Though libc++ relies on 1).


Using

avr-modes.def:
  FRACTIONAL_INT_MODE (PSI, 24, 3);
  INT_N (PSI, 24);

solved at least 1) and 3), however it adds new FAILs due to:

4) error: ISO C does not support '__int24' types [-Wpedantic]

Is there a backwards compatible way to provide [un]signed __inz24
that also works with older revisions of C without raising 4) ?
