BTW, the code for the built-in printf has a bug. For negative field-widths it negates a negative integer without checking it will fit. E.g. on this 64-bit machine$ printf '%-9223372036854775808s.\n' foo foo. $
Coreutils' printf shares this misfortune. Sadly, it might even be a bug in the underlying glibc printf(), although I haven't tried to write a test program to check that, yet.
