fprintf warnings with "%lu" and a size_t value in infcover.c on a 32-bit build

[pmqs]

Seeing the same warning with gcc & clang on Ubuntu. clang helpfully suggests the fix to change the %lu into %zu

Not sure how far back into the past that %zu goes but both gcc & clang set to c89 mode build fine with %zu. Suspect that there may still be some compilers that will barf at %zu .

Other options are to cast the values to unsigned long or to use uLong for these values like in z_stream

This is what I see with gcc

$  CFLAGS="-m32" CC=gcc  ./configure && make infcover
...
gcc -m32 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE=1 -DHAVE_HIDDEN -I. -c -o infcover.o test/infcover.c

C89/90 has no %zu or even long long. Given your observations, I will change them to %zu and hope for the best.
