Another possibility is to use obscurer code that GCC
can't figure out; that's what we did for the empty-string
warning.

I can't reproduce the problem on my
platform (Fedora 19 with its GCC 4.8.2).  Here's how I
tried to reproduce it:

./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir foo xvasprintf
cd foo
./configure CFLAGS='-Wformat -Werror=format-security -O2'
make
make check
