It looks like there have been some changes to lib/snprintf.c to fix
this - what happens if you add this code near the top of snprintf.c?

#ifndef VA_COPY
#ifdef HAVE_VA_COPY
#define VA_COPY(dest, src) va_copy(dest, src)
#else
#ifdef HAVE___VA_COPY
#define VA_COPY(dest, src) __va_copy(dest, src)
#else
#define VA_COPY(dest, src) (dest) = (src)
#endif
#endif

You might even just want to force that last definition, which doesn't
rely on any external functions.

Cheers,
Adam.
