Probably not, but it doesn't really matter.

We want the nginx autoconfiguration to depend on the minimum
features provided by the host, and it's possible to face the
system (FreeBSD 4.X is one such example) that doesn't support
%zu printf() format specifier.  As it costs us nearly nothing
to support them here, why not?

nginx still has some FreeBSD 4.X conditional code.  Whether it
should be kept or removed is another unrelated question.
