This text came directly from the Verilog-XL Reference Manual, word for word.
So however the text is interpreted, the intent of the standard was to match
Verilog-XL here.
This may have been an error in the XL documentation, or it may have been
intended to be interpreted as Shalom suggested: like decimal numbers, leading
zeroes are not printed, but are replaced with spaces instead.
