Oversight; there is one in the mercury-inttypes library
(https://github.com/juliensf/mercury-inttypes) where the original
work on fixed sized integers was done -- it looks like I forgot to
bring it across when I merged that work into the standard library.

I'll do so now; if you want to leave the uint versions, I'll create
them as well.
