Emmanuel.. Are you sure that's going to tell you anything useful?

The difference between signed and unsigned is in how the values are
interpreted. You can take -1, cast it as unsigned, and back to signed
and still wind up with -1.

Since %d tells printf to interpret the value as signed int, it should
print -1, even if size_t is unsigned.

$ cat test.c
int main (void)
{
    unsigned x = -1;
    printf ("x = %d",x);
    return 0;
}
$ gcc test.c
$ ./a.out
x = -1
