If you're talking about *unbuffered* streams, then it shouldn't matter whether you do two printfs or one. The results of the "%d" should be written "as soon as possible" with _IONBF and readable to the "%.5s". I think we're into severe pathology here, I haven't seen anything which leads me to believe that the governing standards made specific guarantees with regards to the cases you're bringing up. If you can quote specific passages to back up your claim, then fine. But so far your cases haven't held up IMHO. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21982
