Inconsistent snprintf format specification parsing

[Dmitry Pankratov]

Binary package hint: mingw32-runtime

OS: Ubuntu 8.04/AMD64.
Package: 3.13-1

Description:
The snprintf library function incorrectly parses the "%lu" format specifier as "unsigned long long" instead of "unsigned long" resulting in incorrect value formatting.

Example:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
    char buf[256];
    snprintf(buf, 256, "%lu", (size_t)12345678);
    printf(buf);
    return 0;
}

Prints:
9151369040453460302

Instead of:
12345678

Looks like this problem is fixed in the mingw-runtime 3.14.
