In Unix 3.0, there is an explicit distinction between these two:  for
a long, you must use the l prefix, while an uppercase conversion letter
specifies a variant style.  X is uppercase hex, O is octal with a leading
zero (hooray!), E is like e but with an uppercase 'e', etc.

Converting to this from V7 may be a little awkward, though...
