That's not the problem here. The fd_buf is only large enough to store  
values between 0 and 99 (inclusive). Although this will fix the  
compilation warning/error, I'm slightly worried that this may confuse  
callers when the filedescriptor is > 99. Before this patch, you'd get  
a truncated value (the first two digits), after there will be no  
difference between an error condition (wdt_fd < 0) or a filedescriptor  
that is too large to fit in the static fd_buf.

The wdt_fd is defined as an 'int', so %d is appropriate here.
