Dear re-examining IOTlers,

I know a lot of us have been unhappy with (some aspects of) Newlib for a long
time, including the somewhat bloated implementation of printf(). However,
there are IMO various good reasons not to implement printf() ourselves.
https://guidovranken.wordpress.com/2016/02/27/openssl-cve-2016-0799-heap-corruption-via-bio_printf/
gives just another good example, what could go wrong.

Cheers,
Oleg
