dnl @obsoleted Use AC_FUNC_SNPRINTF.

dnl Check whether there is a reasonably sane vsnprintf() function
dnl installed. "Reasonably sane" in this context means never clobbering
dnl memory beyond the buffer supplied, and having a sensible return
dnl value. It is explicitly allowed not to NUL-terminate the return
dnl value, however.
