	As Thorsten wrote, this is a sign of too old C library.  And
reverting to the non-n version is not an option, nor is it to try to
provide an alternate implementation.  It is very likely that I will
just make configure stop with error if vsnprintf is not found.

	Thanks for reporting.
	Actually the option works (in either way shown above) on the systems
I could try it.  However it does not on your system, meaning that some test
is not robust enough.  The fix is very simple, so I'm confident it will work
next time for you.
