the best place for them?
If you can stuff them in a shell function, then I'd just put those in a
file like t/test-lib-wrappers.sh and conditionally source them from
t/test-lib.sh.  Otherwise, I'd create a subdirectory of t and then add
that to the PATH if necessary.

If you're going to use it outside of the testsuite, then maybe
compat/scripts might be a good idea.
In fact, Plan 9's ape/sh is pdksh, so it supports "command -v".
However I think, like the above comment, it might be better to create
the printf(1) wrapper.
Awesome.  I haven't used pdksh in a long time, but if it supports that,
all the better.  I'm surprised it doesn't have printf as a builtin, though.
