I looked at the man page for snprintf() and it isn't clear to me that it
is required to space pad when printing hex numbers.

Having looked at the other pieces, I think this is probably the only one
we might want to change. It should be pretty easy to just do something like:

if (cpu_number < 0x10)
	snprintf("CPU %x", cpu_number);
else
	snprintf("CPU%2x", cpu_number);

Esthetically I think this would be prettier, but question is whether
it's something to worry about or not.

Cheers,
Jes
