A full sscanf implementation has a lot of dependencies, including
malloc().  (See the conversion flag 'a'.)  Not good for static linking.

Anyone up for starting a porting project for libc?  Actually, I'm
thinking more of a libc-lightweight, that tries to eliminate a lot
of the interdependencies in the C library.  I'm sure it would be
more useful than just RT.  (It probably already exists...)
