any objections:

Can you give me a good reason for it? To act like the libc printf() isn't a good reason, I mean do you think it will actually help anyone in ways that %d doesn't? Are you noticing tons of submissions of kernel code that have %i and don't work correctly or something?

I just don't get it :-/

I was annoyed when I used %i and it didn't work. POLA.

Can I have %Z? It should take an integer argument, and print that many 'fnord's. Thankyou.

Sure, do you want it as a seperate commit or can I bundle it with the 'i' addition? :)

Basically what I'm getting is that %i isn't portable over to other systems?

In that case I guess it's not needed, I just expected %i to work as it does in libc. But if you need that %Z hack, I can have a delta ready for you to review in a couple of minutes.

let me know, -Alfred
