Note that the overhead of 64-bit printf (assuming the 64-bit 
divide/remainder functions in libgcc aren't pulled in for anything else) 
  is 2524 bytes on powerpc (using GCC 4.3.2).  That's less than NFS, 
which gets turned on by default (as was brought up recently). :-)

What if we were to invert the option (CONFIG_SYS_NO_64BIT_VSPRINTF) so 
that it would only be disabled on boards at the intersection of tight 
space constraints and a board maintainer who's pretty sure this board 
doesn't need it?  There could also be some warning from printf() if %ll 
is used when not supported, and/or it could still check for %ll and pop 
a long long from the varargs but discard the high half.
