ansi printf questions

[Bob Larson]

While writing a portable vsprintf implemtation (to be submitted to
comp.sources.misc) I noticed a couple of oddities in the K&R 2
description of printf formats:

How does %i differ from %d?  Is this just for compatability with
scanf strings?

u, o, x, and X formats take an int and print it unsigned.  Shouldn't
they take an unsigned int?  Is there a difference on any known machine?
