Sometimes consistency is best.
Output everything with seq_printf(), using a format "%s" if necessary.
The performance really doesn't matter here at all.

It is also (probably) possible to get gcc to do the conversions - as it does for printf().
(A right PITA for embedded systems where only printf() exists.)
