Why not just change it to %lli, and a cast to s64? I don't think the
format string or the number of digits is important here because it's just
debug output that is normally disabled.
I also see an existing bug in the format string: "%08li.%08li" means we
end up printing a six digit microsecond value with two leading zeros,
which is rather confusing. I think using "%lld.%06ld" would be best
here, or possibly "%lld.%09ld" to print the whole nanoseconds so we
can skip the division.
