Sorry, but those guys are just using it wrong. Those format specifiers
are perfectly valid in a mingw build, and if you mix different
compilers its your responsibility to make sure it doesn't explode, not
something we need to fix for them.

Don't we document (for a very long time) how to use mingw libraries
from Visual Studio?

More important though: Do you believe the patch may break something?
If not, why do you oppose?
