Erhm.  Forgot about that: neither vsprintf() nor vsnprintf() were
included in the C89 standard.  They were added in the C99 standard.

Although most every system supports them anyway, perhaps with some
caveats, so far, in GNU make, we still support systems with only a
C89-compliant compiler.

I'll need to consider what the best way forward is for this part...
