 I'm a little confused by the va_list* stuff for sprintf*. At one

 I'm guessing that was a different compiler than gcc. Now, it seems
 like everything uses the same mechanism (and it was just patched to be
 this way by Dan).

Here's the relevant excerpt from the glibc stdarg(3) man page:

va_copy

Since I'm not sure that we actually need va_copy, I'm just as happy saying no to its use and just using the va_start/list/end functions.
