Following up to myself:

In focusing too much on finding an equivalent of printf, I overlooked
how easily the functionality needed could be achieved by combining
simpler primitives.

Using string-pad et al from SRFI 13 (String Libraries) it should be
easy to put together what I want in a few lines. Excellent.
