Re: [Linux-ia64] correct seg fault address on ia-64??

D'Laila-

Remember that longs and pointers are 64 bits.  The `%x' format
to `printf' says to print out a 32-bit integer so you wind up
truncating the upper 32-bits of the address.  Just change your
format to `%lx' and you should print out the right address.
