Comment:
My copy of the C99 standard (n869) says about "%p":
p The argument shall be a pointer to void. The value of the pointer
is converted to a sequence of printing characters, in an implementation-
defined manner.
Given that, I don't see any way that Boost.Format can "match what printf
prints".
