dnl @synopsis AC_FUNC_SNPRINTF
dnl
dnl Checks for a fully C99 compliant snprintf, in particular checks
dnl whether it does bounds checking and returns the correct string
dnl length; does the same check for vsnprintf. If no working snprintf
dnl or vsnprintf is found, request a replacement and warn the user
dnl about it. Note: the mentioned replacement is freely available and
dnl may be used in any project regardless of it's licence (just like
dnl the autoconf special exemption).
