There are basically 6 functions that format every equity, mwc, and
percent in gnubg. Your solution requires a new parameter added to each
call (approximately 90 calls in total).

A more general solution is probably to allow the user to specify the
number of digits, or allow the user to specify the printf-style
template.

I don't think that you want 4 digits for rollouts as well. Does snowie
report more digits for rollouts?

I'll revert the 3->4 digit patch, until we find a better solution.
