I'm not sure, but I guess the issue is related to your locale
settings. I expect most developers to use some flavor of "en_*.utf8".
What is your locale (run 'locale' in a shell please)?

Please try to run

  LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 make run/printf

Does it work then?

I just tried to reproduce what may happen with a Chinese locale und
ran

  LC_ALL=zh_CN.utf8 make run/printf

with the following output

  L4 Bootstrapper
    Build: #1 2014年 04月 28日 星期一 16:45:05 CEST, x86-64, 4.7.2
  ...

The character after '2014' is a Chinese symbol, which may confuse the
expect tool or some other component of the run environment. But as I
wrote before: I'm just guessing...
