Which the MS runtime doesn't seem to support... from my experiences (I 
don't have the MS compiler, I just asked somebody else to compile some 
code and send me the program output and some assembly dumps), VC++ 
"demotes" long doubles to plain doubles in printf.

But now that you mentioned %Lf, I would like to confirm with anyone here 
who has VC++; what does happen when trying to printf a long double on 
VC++? For me, it looks like VC++ tries a "magic" conversion in variadic 
functions, but if it is true, it may break legit code (when trying to 
va_arg a long double where a plain double was put).
