Aha - you're right!

I just earned the Ugly Patch of the Day Award.

I think changes of "%lu" to "0x%lx" are still ok,
but changes of "%8lu" to "0x%8lx" (which use 8
columns, right aligned, space filled format) are
not ok.

I will redo this patch, without the "0x" prefix
on the space filled fields.  Let me know if that
is better.

Thank-you.
