i don;t know how these implementations work, so it's hard to say. perhaps they are interpolated. maybe use cvs to track down the author and ask them? whatever the outcome, if you want to change this text you probably want to adjust a few more: /usr/src/lib/libc/gen/err.3:for later interpolation by the /usr/src/lib/libc/gen/setproctitle.3:for later interpolation by /usr/src/lib/libc/gen/syslog.3:for later interpolation by /usr/src/lib/libc/stdio/printf.3:for later interpolation by jmc > Index: printf.3 > =================================================================== > RCS file: /cvs/src/lib/libc/stdio/printf.3,v > retrieving revision 1.74 > diff -u -p -r1.74 printf.3 > --- printf.3 13 Oct 2015 12:25:04 -0000 1.74 > +++ printf.3 17 Nov 2015 09:36:19 -0000 > @@ -852,7 +852,7 @@ This holds true even if the string has b > using a function like > .Fn snprintf , > as the resulting string may still contain user-supplied conversion specifiers > -for later interpolation by > +for later interpretation by > .Fn printf . > .Pp > Be sure to use the proper secure idiom: >
