 * Function:  HDfprintf
 *
 * Purpose:  Prints the optional arguments under the control of the format
 *    string FMT to the stream STREAM.  This function takes the
 *    same format as fprintf(3c) with a few added features:
 *
 *    The conversion modifier `H' refers to the size of an
 *    `hsize_t' or `hssize_t' type.  For instance, "0x%018Hx"
 *    prints an `hsize_t' value as a hex number right justified and
 *    zero filled in an 18-character field.
 *
 *    The conversion `a' refers to an `haddr_t' type.
 *
 * Return:  Success:  Number of characters printed
 *
 *    Failure:  -1
 *
 * Programmer:  Robb Matzke
 *              Thursday, April  9, 1998
 *
 * Modifications:
 *    Robb Matzke, 1999-07-27
 *    The `%a' format refers to an argument of `haddr_t' type
 *    instead of `haddr_t*' and the return value is correct.

/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Function:  HDstrtoll
 *
 * Purpose:  Converts the string S to an int64_t value according to the
 *    given BASE, which must be between 2 and 36 inclusive, or be
 *    the special value zero.
 *
 *    The string must begin with an arbitrary amount of white space
 *    (as determined by isspace(3c)) followed by a single optional
 *              `+' or `-' sign.  If BASE is zero or 16 the string may then
 *    include a `0x' or `0X' prefix, and the number will be read in
 *    base 16; otherwise a zero BASE is taken as 10 (decimal)
 *    unless the next character is a `0', in which case it is taken
 *    as 8 (octal).
 *
 *    The remainder of the string is converted to an int64_t in the
 *    obvious manner, stopping at the first character which is not
 *    a valid digit in the given base.  (In bases above 10, the
 *    letter `A' in either upper or lower case represetns 10, `B'
 *    represents 11, and so forth, with `Z' representing 35.)
 *
 *    If REST is not null, the address of the first invalid
 *    character in S is stored in *REST.  If there were no digits
 *    at all, the original value of S is stored in *REST.  Thus, if
 *    *S is not `\0' but **REST is `\0' on return the entire string
 *    was valid.
 *
 * Return:  Success:  The result.
 *
 *    Failure:  If the input string does not contain any
 *        digits then zero is returned and REST points
 *        to the original value of S.  If an overflow
 *        or underflow occurs then the maximum or
 *        minimum possible value is returned and the
 *        global `errno' is set to ERANGE.  If BASE is
 *        incorrect then zero is returned.
