egcs 1.0.x doesn't recognize printf %a

egcs 1.0.x (at least .2, .3a) doesn't know about the %a printf
specifier. This is new to C9x and prints floating point numbers in
hexadecimal. glibc 2.1 (and possibly 2.0) implements it; the test
suite gets spurious warnings -
warning: unknown conversion type character 0xa in format
It'd be nice if egcs 1.1 knew about it.
