Sigh. My bad. (I added a note to the release notes on the website.)

Wait, what? We cut it _down_ to INT_MAX/2 because glibc's printf started
choking on a field with of INT_MAX sometime after Ubuntu 12.04 (where it
worked just fine):

    Although printf("%.*s", INT_MAX, s) works fine on ubuntu 12.04,
    it broke since.

Now it can't handle the _smaller_ value? What libc version has this new bug?

Thanks,

Rob
