    negative ints *as* negative ints when fed into %x formats.  Python 2.3
    still renders them as positive ints, but spews
    
    FutureWarning: %u/%o/%x/%X of negative int will return a signed string
                   in Python 2.4 and up
    
    to warn about the impending change.  Jim reported two instances of that
    warning when running the tests on a box where addresses happen to "be
    negative".  So make the addresses look positive instead (2.3 and 2.4
    treat those the same, so 2.3 doesn't warn about those).
    
    Problem:  it occurs to me now that I'm assuming addresses fit in 32
    bits here.
