> "%s" requires a pointer to a string, which (char*)0 isn't.

"%s" is a c-style string.
try the code below, and please notice that the code works well on g++ 3.4.4 and
also on Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 without a run-time error.

#include <cstdio>
int main()
{
    const char* p = "This is a c-syle string.";
    printf("%s\n", p);
    char* q = 0;
    printf("%s\n", q);
}
