Subject: Re: [PATCH] Don't call sprintf() with overlapping input and output.
2008/12/7 Anders Kaseorg <andersk@....edu>:
> The use of sprintf() to append to a buffer, as in

> is not valid according to C99 ("If copying takes place between objects
> that overlap, the behavior is undefined."). It breaks at least in
> userspace under gcc -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE. Replace this construct with
