What is a %zu?

Isn't that a mismatch?
You're right - ssize_t and size_t. I think gcc just isn't checking
signedness at all, that %i should be a %u too. Good catch.

Seems a _very_ odd use.
It is a strange hack.

The idea is that we want to indent more as we recurse; we could build up
a new string of tabs each time we recurse that's got one more tab than
our parent's, but that'd be a pain in the ass and it'd use more stack
space (though that should be fine here), so instead it's just
decrementing the pointer to the tab string to produce a string with one
more tab.
It's a nice idea, but that's not what's happening
as I believe you reference tabs only once as &tabs[4]
bch_btree_dump() prints out tabs, and passes tabs - 1 when it recurses.
