This needs to be committed to unbreak ia64 and mips64*. Still waiting
to see what happens with sparc64, but amd64 and powerpc64 were oddly
happy without this, even though they should have failed along with
ia64 and mips64* (the format string should have been %zu for a size_t
type).

Will rerun universe once it completes on amd64, ia64 and sparc64
though later on today..
Thanks!
