Good catch. As I understand it, we need to short-circuit AND because an
--invert or a --not above it in the expression tree would cause it to be
turned into an OR by de Morgan's Law, and therefore be susceptible to
the same reasoning that caused me to remove short-circuiting on OR.

I see. Per your next note, I've changed this to "%"PRIuMAX (and the
appropriate cast into uintmax_t), and will send another patch out in the
future changing it _back_ to "%zu" and figure out how folks feel about
it.

I published these changes on my fork at [1], and will let this thread
sit overnight again to see if anyone has any more feedback. Thank you!
