Fred checked in a new rangeobject.c with 3 calls to snprintf. That isn't a std C function, and the lack of it breaks the build at least under Windows. In the absence of a checkin supplying snprintf on all platforms within the next hour, I'll just replace the snprintf calls with something that's portable.

Hmm. I think the issue with known existing snprintf() implementations with Open Source licenses was that they were at least somewhat contanimating. I'll switch back to sprintf() until we have a portable snprintf() implementation.
