Do we know the area pointed at p (which is inside buf) long enough
not to overflow?  If the original were 9 and you incremented to get
10, you would need one extra byte.

Even if it is enough, I'd ask to please use xsnprintf(). In the off
chance that there's a programming error, we'd get a nice die("BUG")
instead of a buffer overflow (and it makes the code base easier to audit
for other overflows).
