This seems to be just a bug.  The original db_printf() prints -1 as -1
for %z format.  From db_output.c rev.1.1:

%%%
		case 'z':
			ul = lflag ? va_arg(ap, u_long) : va_arg(ap, u_int);
			if ((long)ul < 0) {
				neg = 1;
				ul = -(long)ul;
			}
			base = 16;
			goto number;
%%%

I "restored" this wrong in subr_prf.c 1.47.
