I committed the fix including yours, but I might be too optimistic
about the old platform problem.  Linux manual page says:

  HISTORY

  BSD 4.3 Reno has the flag 0, the length modifiers h and L, and the
  conversions n, p, E, G, X (with current meaning) and deprecates
  D,O,U.

OK, I will revert those changes for 1.8 branch, and put it only to the
HEAD, where we use our own implementation of sprintf.
