That's a bug. It should print it signed. If unsigned printing of size_t is desired, %zu should be used.
Looking in stringobject.c, I don't see how %zu (or %lu) can be used with String_FromFormatV.
Right. It currently cannot be used. So if it is desired, it needs to be added first, and then should be used. Looking at the checkin messages, I understand that the change from "d" to "u" was to make some compiler stop warning - that is the wrong motivation for such a behavioral change. Regards, Martin
