+**
+** These functions are intended to be a complete replacement for
+** sprintf and sprintf_irc. They are a (nearly) complete
+** reimplementation, and of course they're snprintf clones, making it
+** more difficult for accidental buffer overflows to crop up.
+**
+** First off, what's missing? These functions support all ANSI C
+** conversion specifiers and selected ones from ISO 9x, with the
+** exception of all floating-point conversions. The floating-point
+** conversions are tricky, and will likely be dependent on the
+** representation of a floating-point number on a particular
+** architecture. While that representation is likely to conform to
+** some standard, it is not currently used in ircu, so seemed like a
+** good thing to omit, given the difficulty of implementing it.
+**
+** There are two more things missing from this implementation that
+** would be required by ANSI; the first is support for multibyte
+** character strings, and the second is support for locales, neither
+** of which have any relevance for ircu, so again omission seemed to
+** be a good policy. Additionally, %#x always causes '0x' (or '0X')
+** to be printed, even if the number is zero.
+**
+** These functions also have some extensions not seen in a
+** standards-compliant implementation; technically, the ISO 9x
+** extensions fall into this category, for instance. The ISO 9x
+** extensions supported are type extensions--%ju, %tu, and %zu, for
+** instance; %qu and %hhu are also supported. The extensions added
+** for use in ircu are %Tu, which takes a time_t, and the new %C
+** conversion, which inserts either a numeric or a nick, dependant on
+** the <dest> parameter. The GNU %m extension, which inserts the
+** strerror() string corresponding to the current value of errno, is
+** also supported, as is a special %v extension, which essentially
+** does a recursive call to ircd_snprintf.
+**
+** The following description is descended from the Linux manpage for
+** the printf family of functions.
+**
+** The format string is composed of zero or more directives:
+** ordinary characters (not %), which are copied unchanged to the
+** output stream; and conversion specifications, each of which results
+** in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments. Each conversion
+** specification is introduced by the character %. The arguments must
+** correspond properly (after type promotion) with the conversion
+** specifier. After the %, the following appear in sequence:
+**
+** <ul><li>Zero or more of the following flags:<dl>
+**
+** <dt>#</dt>
+** <dd>specifying that the value should be converted to an
+** "alternate form." For c, d, i, n, p, s, and u conversions,
+** this option has no effect. For o conversions, the precision
+** of the number is increased to force the first character of the
+** output string to a zero (except if a zero value is printed
+** with an explicit precision of zero). For x and X conversions,
+** the string '0x' (or '0X' for X conversions) is prepended to
+** it. For e, E, f, g, and G conversions, the result will always
+** contain a decimal point, even if no digits follow it
+** (normally, a decimal point appears in the results of those
+** conversions only if a digit follows). For g and G
+** conversions, trailing zeros are not removed from the result as
+** they would otherwise be. For C conversions, if the
+** destination is local and the origin is a user, the
+** nick!user\@host form is used.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>0</dt>
+** <dd> specifying zero padding. For all conversions except n, the
+** converted value is padded on the left with zeros rather than
+** blanks. If a precision is given with a numeric conversion (d,
+** i, o, u, i, x, and X), the 0 flag is ignored.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>-</dt>
+** <dd>(a negative field width flag) indicates the converted value is
+** to be left adjusted on the field boundary. Except for n
+** conversions, the converted value is padded on the right with
+** blanks, rather than on the left with blanks or zeros. A -
+** overrides a 0 if both are given.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>' ' (a space)</dt>
+** <dd>specifying that a blank should be left before a
+** positive number produced by a signed conversion (d, e, E, f,
+** g, G, or i).</dd>
+**
+** <dt>+</dt>
+** <dd>specifying that a sign always be placed before a number
+** produced by a signed conversion. A + overrides a space if
+** both are used.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>:</dt>
+** <dd>specifying that a struct Client name should be preceded by a
+** ':' character if the destination is a user.</dd>
+** </dl></li>
+**
+** <li>An optional decimal digit string specifying a minimum field
+** width. If the converted value has fewer characters than the
+** field width, it will be padded with spaces on the left (or right,
+** if the left-adjustment flag has been given) to fill out the field
+** width.</li>
+**
+** <li>An optional precision, in the form of a period (`.') followed by
+** an optional digit string. If the digit string is omitted, the
+** precision is taken as zero. This gives the minimum number of
+** digits to appear for d, i, o, u, x, and X conversions, the number
+** of digits to appear after the decimal-point for e, E, and f
+** conversions, the maximum number of significant digits for g and G
+** conversions, or the maximum number of characters to be printed
+** from a string for s conversions.</li>
+**
+** <li>The optional character h, specifying that a following d, i, o, u,
+** x, or X conversion corresponds to a short int or unsigned short
+** int argument, or that a following n conversion corresponds to a
+** pointer to a short int argument. If the h character is given
+** again, char is used instead of short int.</li>
+**
+** <li>The optional character l (ell) specifying that a following d, i,
+** o, u, x, or X conversion applies to a pointer to a long int or
+** unsigned long int argument, or that a following n conversion
+** corresponds to a pointer to a long int argument.</li>
+**
+** <li>The character L specifying that a following e, E, f, g, or G
+** conversion corresponds to a long double argument, or a following
+** d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion corresponds to a long long
+** argument. Note that long long is not specified in ANSI C and
+** therefore not portable to all architectures.</li>
+**
+** <li>The optional character q. This is equivalent to L.</li>
+**
+** <li>A j character specifying that the following integer (d, i, o, u,
+** x, or X) conversion corresponds to an intmax_t argument.</li>
+**
+** <li>A t character specifying that the following integer (d, i, o, u,
+** x, or X) conversion corresponds to a ptrdiff_t argument.</li>
+**
+** <li>A z character specifying that the following integer (d, i, o, u,
+** x, or X) conversion corresponds to a size_t argument.</li>
+**
+** <li>A T character specifying that the following integer (d, i, o, u,
+** x, or X) conversion corresponds to a time_t argument.</li>
+**
+** <li>A character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied.</li>
+** </ul>
+**
+** A field width or precision, or both, may be indicated by an
+** asterisk `*' instead of a digit string. In this case, an int
+** argument supplies the field width or precision. A negative field
+** width is treated as a left adjustment flag followed by a positive
+** field width; a negative precision is treated as though it were
+** missing.
+**
+** The conversion specifiers and their meanings are:
+**
+** <dl>
+** <dt>diouxX</dt>
+** <dd>The int (or appropriate variant) argument is converted
+** to signed decimal (d and i), unsigned octal (o),
+** unsigned decimal (u), or unsigned hexadecimal (x and
+** X) notation. The letters abcdef are used for x
+** conversions; the letters ABCDEF are used for X
+** conversions. The precision, if any, gives the minimum
+** number of digits that must appear; if the converted
+** value requires fewer digits, it is padded on the left
+** with zeros.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>eE [NOT IMPLEMENTED]</dt>
+** <dd>The double argument is rounded and
+** converted in the style [-]d.dddedd where there is one
+** digit before the decimal-point character and the
+** number of digits after it is equal to the precision;
+** if the precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the
+** precision is zero, no decimal-point character appears.
+** An E conversion uses the letter E (rather than e) to
+** introduce the exponent. The exponent always contains
+** at least two digits; if the value is zero, the
+** exponent is 00.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>f [NOT IMPLEMENTED]</dt>
+** <dd>The double argument is rounded and
+** converted to decimal notation in the style
+** [-]ddd.ddd, where the number of digits after the
+** decimal-point character is equal to the precision
+** specification. If the precision is missing, it is
+** taken as 6; if the precision is explicitly zero, no
+** decimal-point character appears. If a decimal point
+** appears, at least one digit appears before it.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>g [NOT IMPLEMENTED]</dt>
+** <dd>The double argument is converted in
+** style f or e (or E for G conversions). The precision
+** specifies the number of significant digits. If the
+** precision is missing, 6 digits are given; if the
+** precision is zero, it is treated as 1. Style e is
+** used if the exponent from its conversion is less than
+** -4 or greater than or equal to the precision.
+** Trailing zeros are removed from the fractional part of
+** the result; a decimal point appears only if it is
+** followed by at least one digit.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>c</dt>
+** <dd>The int argument is converted to an unsigned char, and
+** the resulting character is written.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>s</dt>
+** <dd>The "char *" argument is expected to be a pointer to
+** an array of character type (pointer to a string).
+** Characters from the array are written up to (but not
+** including) a terminating NUL character; if a precision
+** is specified, no more than the number specified are
+** written. If a precision is given, no null character
+** need be present; if the precision is not specified, or
+** is greater than the size of the array, the array must
+** contain a terminating NUL character.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>p</dt>
+** <dd>The "void *" pointer argument is printed in
+** hexadecimal (as if by %#x or %#lx).</dd>
+**
+** <dt>n</dt>
+** <dd>The number of characters written so far is stored into
+** the integer indicated by the ``int *'' (or variant)
+** pointer argument. No argument is converted.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>m</dt>
+** <dd>The error message associated with the current value of
+** errno is printed as if by %s.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>C</dt>
+** <dd>The client argument identifier is printed under the
+** control of the <dest> argument; if <dest> is NULL or
+** is a user, the client's name (nickname or server name)
+** is printed; otherwise, the client's network numeric is
+** printed.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>H</dt>
+** <dd>The channel argument identifier (channel name) is
+** printed.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>v</dt>
+** <dd>The argument given must be a pointer to a struct
+** VarData with vd_format and vd_args must be initialized
+** appropriately. On return, vd_chars will contain the
+** number of characters added to the buffer, and
+** vd_overflow will contain the number of characters that
+** could not be added due to buffer overflow or due to a
+** precision.</dd>
+**
+** <dt>%<dt>
+** <dd>A `%' is written. No argument is converted. The
+** complete conversion specification is `%%'.</dd>
+** </dl>
+**
+** In no case does a non-existent or small field width cause
+** truncation of a field; if the result of a conversion is wider than
+** the field width, the field is expanded to contain the conversion
+** result.
