As mentioned to Paolo, I'm splitting this into two parts for the v2 series (the first part to fix testsuite failures on Mac OS which is still 2.8 material, the second to rip out %I64d which becomes more of 2.9 material). >> My other argument is that I _do_ intend to rip out ALL of the dynamic >> JSON support, at which point we no longer have %d, let along %lld. >> Until you see that followup series and decide whether it was too >> invasive for 2.9, it's hard to say that we are throwing out anything >> useful in this short-term fix for 2.8.
