You can use @printf for C-like printf formatting strings. Or you can do UInt32((0xaaaaaaaaabcdef1234>>32) & 0xFFFFFFFF), which actually strips off the leading zero bytes to give you a 32-bit object. Better yet, do (0xaaaaaaaaabcdef1234>>32) % UInt32 to just pull out the last four bytes without a bitmask.
