you mean replacing all the the %l[udx] (lower case l) by %I[udx] (upper 
case i) ?


BTW, include/msvcrt/stdio.h doesn't use the __attribute__((format)) 
thingie for printf nor scanf families

(I was surprised that there wasn't warning about the printf & sscanf 
usage I've just sent a patch for...)

I'll dig into it


A+
