Hi Igor, nice to see you again!

I knew this was going to happen :)

It was just an example, I'm not using string formatting. The actual
function I'm calling is the callout interface for OpenFirmware, through
which OpenFirmware provides services to the booted operating
system. Pretty much like BIOS' INT mechanism, but much more
powerful.
