 Probably something is wrong with your ATF way, this example works:

 #include <stdio.h>

 int main() {
 int i;
 i = 0;
 sscanf("-0x1234", "%i", &i);
 printf("%d\n", i);
 i = 0;
 sscanf("-0x1234", "%x", &i);
 printf("%d\n", i);
 }

 -4660
 -4660
 (which is -0x1234)

 Please do not post more ATF examples, use plain ones, many developers
 (including me) don't have ATF installed.
