printf failure on darwin with coreutils-6.9.91

[Peter Fales]

I'm trying to build coreutils-6.9.91 for Mac OS/X (Darwin 10.3)
and getting test failures from misc/printf.   The output of make check
is attached below.   I believe the problem occurs around line 345 of
src/printf.c which has:

342      switch (conversion)
343        {
344        case 'd': case 'i': case 'o': case 'u': case 'x': case 'X':
345          length_modifier = PRIdMAX;
346          length_modifier_len = sizeof PRIdMAX - 2;
347          break;

On linux PRIdMAX is defined as "lld" but on darwin it is defined as "qd".  
Later on in the block of code around line 331 in lib/parse-printf.c, the
'q' case is not handled.

Here's the test log:
