There is a problem in pcbnew: just creating a graphic arc gives
a sigsegv: really not fun in my book :P well, looking at the problem
even *selecting* a graphic arc should segfault...

Tracked down the issue, this is the fix:

Two things to notice: the first one is the invalid printf format,
probably a typo. The second, is that you can't pass a float to a vararg
function... probably there would have been an implied type promotion
during the call, but IMHO it's better to use directly the right type
(also varargs rules changed between C and C++ version...)

I do not dare to try a commit to the production repo yet, I'm still
not sufficiently fluent in bzr...
