Actually, I'm not sure things are any better today- even the same
operating system but different versions have inconsistencies, for
instance on some versions of RHEL the vsnprintf() can fail during
unicode conversion. MSVCRT still returns -1 on truncation, et cetera.

That said, theres plenty of other implementations that manage this
without the potential of underflowing a buffer
