That is odd...

As we discussed in IRC, I'd just use the direct va_list assignment
(remove CSRG_BASED from the #if defined() block) and see if that
works, though my reading suggests that a simple assignment can break
in certain situations on certain plaforms.  It may not be a problem on
modern systems.  For the 64b case, which I believe does support
__va_copy(), you might us it if CSRG_BASED && __LP64__ is defined.

Also, you might see if a regular va_copy() is available on i386.  That
would work too.
