	Thanks.

	Well for one thing it makes the logs more readable.  P.S. It
	isn't just (long long) it is (long) as well.  It looks like
	you need to more carfully tune the post cross configure output.

	Note the error message below should have read

		"has 0 SOA records"

	We fixed a bug that was preventing these messages being
	printed which resulted in these messages for the internal
	zones (which we failed to notice).  Fixed in 9.3.1.
