The patch looks good, but I'd love to see this behavior documented. No
need to resend, just reply with appropriate diff to
docs/formatdomain.rst and I'll squash it when pushing.
If you decide to resend then you'll get extra points for mentioning this
change in NEWS.rst ;-)

Use unsigned int for sprintf and update tests to ensure it can hold INT_MAX+1.
