Putting an explicit cast sounds like a more readable idea too. It took 
me a bit to know what PRIdPTR actually does (well, I grep'd the headers 
and discovered that on sparc it is for example "lu" even if it is a 
32bit sparc...).

David did already a lot of work which needs to be updated again :(

Any other have comments about this?
