Print a char in hex not correct. Is is a C51 bug?

// Below is a demo program:

#include <stdio.h>

static unsigned char buf0[10], buf1[10], buf2[10];

void main(void)
{
 unsigned char x, c = 0x2d;
 unsigned int i = 0x0012;
 unsigned int j = 0x3456;
  unsigned char b[3] = { 0x78, 0x9a, 0xbc };
 
 while (1) {

   x = sprintf(buf0, "0x%02x ", c);                              // "0x2d00“
   x = sprintf(buf1, "0x%04x ", c);                              // ”0x2d00"
   x = sprintf(buf2, "0x%02x ", (unsigned int)c);         // Cast to integer type, OK
  x = sprintf(buf2, "0x%04x ", (unsigned int)c);         // OK
  
   x = sprintf(buf1, "0x%02x ", i);                       // Integer type, OK
   x = sprintf(buf1, "0x%02x ", j);                       // OK

  x = sprintf(buf2, "0x%02x ", (unsigned short) b[0]);   // Cast to integer type, OK
  x = sprintf(buf2, "0x%04x ", (unsigned short) b[0]);   // OK
  x = sprintf(buf2, "0x%04x ", (unsigned short) b[1]);   // OK
  x = sprintf(buf2, "0x%02x ", (unsigned short) b[2]);   // OK
 
 };
}
