Hello!

Good idea but:

This assumes just because we use the gcc for compiling our C library must have
support for %ll. I use gcc for compiling but the native linker for linking
(GNU binutils cannot create correct shared libraries) and a propriatary C
library without %ll support (OS is SINIX/ReliantUNIX).
