I am playing around with EDK2 on QEMU with a UEFI shell application and in the app 
I allocate some memory using gBS->AllocatePool(EfiBootServicesData, ...)

Programmatically accessing the pointer returned works fine, but when I print 
it, it does not seem to be what I would expect is a valid address.

I've allocated 4GB to the QEMU machine, which I believe starts at 0x40000000.


You can run the `memmap` command at the EFI Shell to see the layout.

But, when I print the address returned by AllocatePool the value is 
"0x39177018".


Print != printf on some of the format string so be careful about that….


I figured it out.  It was a dumb Print() formatting error that resulted in
the address getting truncated to 8 bytes.

Thanks,
Stuart
