Well, I really meant "%Zu". 'z' is a modifier that was introduced in C99,
but it's only in very recent 2.4.x printk implementations, i.e. none of 
current AS 2.1, EL3, or UL have it, which means we can't use it. 'Z' is
GNU extension (that's deprecated now in favor of the C99 modifier) that
*is* in all the printks we need to support, so we should use that.
__attribute__ format should know about both anyway.

BTW, are you planning on replacing HI/LO with %L in a later patch?
