I share your pain. I recently had to write one that not only did that,
but it used a comma instead of a point.
The only alternative is:
printf ("%d.%03d", x / 1000, x % 1000)
I don't know the capabilities of avr libc, I hope it copes with the
leading zero format.
There is an even more advanced format to make the field size a
parameter, but I don't know it off the top of my head. One thing is
certain; if you used it you'd end up writing traditional C - totally
unreadable by mortal beings. ;-)
