Interestingly SUSv3 (aka POSIX 2001) only requires the terminating null if the precision is longer than the array size. s The argument shall be a pointer to an array of char. Bytes from the array shall be written up to (but not including) any terminating null byte. If the precision is specified, no more than that many bytes shall be written. If the precision is not specified or is greater than the size of the array, the application shall ensure that the array contains a null byte.
