There are two issues.  One is what type specifier to use (and it is a 
correctness issue), the other is what width to use (and it is an 
aesthetics issue).  The patch fixes the correctness issue and makes the 
aesthetic part worse.

I agree that a better fix would be to cast to uint32_t as it is done for 
crX, but this patch is anyway better than nothing because right now DR7 
is printed incorrectly _exactly on 64-bit guests running on 32-bit mode_.

An even better fix than uint32_t would be to introduce TARGET_FMT_8lx 
(which maps to "%08"PRI_x64) so that, if for some reason the high 32-bit 
are not zero, they will be shown.
