You said already in [1] that you don't care about code size. Other people care.
gnulib will offer something for either taste: You can subscribe to the
'snprintf-posix' module, whereas people who just want an snprintf of an
integer (e.g. lib/getaddrinfo.c) are better served with the smaller (but
not always fully POSIX) 'snprintf' module.
