Thank you for working on that.
I've improved your patch: update the now-shared hex_printf_
rather than making a copy, use a better definition of that function
(knowing that "printf %s a b c d e" reuses the format string and
prints just 5 bytes helps), also update word-multibyte to work
with the new definition, and rewrite the commit log.
I'll push after you ACK:
