ah i see. not an easy decision. i wouldn't use the 'h' suffix, because there
should be only one way of relating to a hex value and i believe the overall
convention in freebsd is '0x'.so better keep it the way it is. maybe using %X
instead of %x in the printfs makes the output look a bit nicer, but that's
just eyecandy. ;)

cheers.
