There was a lot of back-and-forth already in vreportf(): d048a96e (2007-11-09) - 'char msg[256]' is introduced to avoid interleaving 389d1767 (2009-03-25) - Buffer size increased to 1024 to avoid truncation 625a860c (2009-11-22) - Buffer size increased to 4096 to avoid truncation f4c3edc0 (2015-08-11) - Buffer removed to avoid truncation b5a9e435 (2017-01-11) - Reverts f4c3edc0 to be able to replace control chars before sending to stderr This fix attempts to solve all issues: 1) avoid multiple fprintf() interleaving 2) avoid truncation 3) avoid char interleaving in fprintf() on some platforms 4) avoid buffer block interleaving when output is large 5) avoid Out-of-order messages 6) replace control characters in output Other commits worthy of notice: 9ac13ec9 (2006-10-11) - Another attempt to solve interleaving.
