Yes, I saw this last night. It's a change from 2.2.0-alpha2. I have a
patch for it, but that also contains some docbook updates that I want to
verify first.

You should be able to get it to compile by changing snprintf to slprintf.


A question to the list, why this warning for snprintf but not for 
slprintf?

As far as I can tell
	snprintf(buf, n, ...)
is equivalent to
	slprintf(buf, n, ...)
except for the returnvalue which 99% of the callers ignore. So why the big
warning? C libraries with buggy snprintf implementations?
