Done. Now you can use
%-2.02i
and it should work for all lengths, even length 1 :)

Timo, it'd be nice if you could apply this :)

This patch makes it possible to use a negative offset to count from the
end of a variable.

 You can take a substring of the variable by giving optional offset followed
 by '.' and width after the '%' character. For example %2u gives first two
 characters of the username. %2.1u gives third character of the username. If
-offset points outside the value, empty string is returned.
+the offset is negative, it counts from the end, for example %-2.02i gives
+the UID mod 100 (last two characters of the UID printed in a string). If a
+positive offset points outside the value, empty string is returned, if a
+negative offset does then the string is taken from the start.
 
 For login_log_format_elements there are also these variables:
