Well, the first goal was deciding what range of configurable types
would be allowed (e.g. would we even allow 'long long').  Since we're
allowing 'long long', we obviously need to printf it.  

That done, I'd suggest a short term fix of using Perl5's sPRI* Configure
variables.

Longer term, we've obviously got to figure them out for ourselves in
Configure.pl.
