--- Comment #5 from Nico Weber <nicolasweber at gmx.de> ---
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

struct ANSI_STRING {
  unsigned short len;
  unsigned short maxlen;
  char* buf;
};

int main() {
  char buf[] = "hello there";
  ANSI_STRING s = { strlen(buf), sizeof(buf), buf };
  printf("%4.4Z\n", &s);
  printf("%4.4s\n", s.buf);
}


has output


D:\src\chromefetch\src>test
hello there
hell



So precision is in fact ignored for %Z arguments. So clang's right here, and
chromium's code is incorrect.
