I did wonder if we needed to deal with any fallout from f4c3edc
(vreportf: avoid intermediate buffer, 2015-08-11). That _is_ new in this
release, so regressions are fair game during the -rc period.
Yeah, and the most obvious way to deal with it is just to revert,
but as you point out, it is not really introducing a new issue, so
there is not much point doing that, I would think.
I don't think it should matter, though. Though it does add an fflush(), it
is replacing an existing fprintf(), and both should be taking the same
lock on stderr (so it probably _is_ still a potential problem, but not a
new one).
Yeah, I reached the same conclusion.
Thanks.
