Re: [PATCH] Add compat/vsnprintf.c for systems that returns -1 on maxsize reached

I'd suggest using a longer buf, requesting a longer length (e.g. 3
instead of 1), and then making sure that the resulting buf is right
(e.g. "12" instead of "123").

		  if (test_vsnprintf(buf, 3, "%s", "12345") != 5
		   || strcmp(buf, "12") != 0) return 1;
		  if (snprintf(buf, 3, "%s", "12345") != 5
		   || strcmp(buf, "12") != 0) return 1]])],

That sounds like a sensible thing to do.

Other than that, the patch in

    Message-Id: [ref]

looked Ok to me.
