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.

Please don't bother! Clearly, I've already fixed it on my machine so I could make progress. I'll simply check it in. I didn't like the excessive cleverness with the fmt vrbl anyway (your compiler may not complain that you can end up passing more s[n]printf args than the format has specifiers to convert, but it's a no-no anyway) ....
