Hmm. It look like behaving a bit xdifferently. At least for example,
for "%-X", current code treats it as 0 padding but the patch treats it
as -1.

By the way, the current code is already a kind of buggy. I think I
showed an example like:

"%4%5%6%7p" is converted to "57p". Do we need to imitate that bug
with this patch?
