Fix bug discovered by John W. Shipman -- when the width of a format
specifier came from an int expression instead of a constant in the format, a negative width was truncated to zero instead of taken to mean the same as that negative constant plugged into the format. E.g. "(%*s)" % (-5, "foo") yielded "(foo)" while "(%-5s)" yields "(foo )". Now both yield the latter -- like sprintf() in C.
