Robert Hoehne posted the reason for this; can I point out that for now you
could escape it in character or string constants:

printf("Character 224: \224\n");

This is not a special feature of printf; it works in any string constant
by inserting the specified character number.

Incidentally, does anyone know how to follow the above character with a
number? An obvious hack is to write the number as an ASCII code as well,
but this is a bit unpleasant.
