The problem is with the gcc compiler. Is assumes a 8-byte alignment for the
data of the va_list. However by using the va_list as a function argument,
the list start may rest on odd 4-byte boundries.

I have checked into SVN a putf version where we push ap one function deeper,
and things work as expected.

SVN also realizes printing of 64bit integers.

Regarding the gcc problems, I have a report/question pending on
