It seems that the message has generated more confusion than enlightment.
Please note that it was **never** my intention to suggest this code for DJGPP inclusion.

That is the important thing.
The goal was to call your attention to this package with its own definitions
of {v},snprintf() functions.

Once again, it was *never* my intention to suggest to drop Alain's implementation and
to start using this code. The patch should only show what this particular package expects.
