What about C++ bitfields? Not a library but a language extension. A lot of code I used has migrated to that.

Normal C++ bitfields?
Sometimes you get that inside classes in the form of "bool x : 1; bool y : 1;" etc.
But that's much harder to use as far as function parameters go, so old school bitmasks are used for that.
