Upon further thinking, I'm inclined to agree with this.  I checked the
man pages in FC4 and assumed something changed here with the ABI
change.  I should have checked the FC5T2 man page....  From my
experience with %ld and %d on 32-bit and 64-bit things can be very
confusing since int and long int are the same size on 32-bit x86.
It would still be interesting to see the difference between %lf and
%f.  And also %Lf or %llf (which should be equivalent).
