Fixed behaviour of [format] on 64-bit platforms by defining it to work with
machine words by default. This seems to be what the test suite expected
anyway, and it is a fairly sensible choice. The other alternative was to
make %d always 32-bit and %ld always 64-bit, but that'd be more complex to do.
