fmt: %#x on string prints 0x for every byte

[rsc]

http://play.golang.org/p/Qmvs0J1cpM 

package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
    fmt.Printf("%x\n", "hello")
    fmt.Printf("%#x\n", "hello")
}

prints

68656c6c6f
0x680x650x6c0x6c0x6f

It should probably print

68656c6c6f
0x68656c6c6f

Too late for 1.3; something to think about for 1.4.
