Thanks for the pointer.

While I understand the APR team wants to match APR_INT64_T_FMT, %ll[du] should 
still be supported even if APR_INT64_T_FMT is "ld", to ensure compatibility 
with the system printf.

(APR team, I'd be happy to become a committer and/or submit patches, if y'all 
are receptive.)
