Oh great.
So I guess mingw is using the BSD style definition,
ie. the non-gnu approach.
I'm guessing mingw's manpage for snprintf()
probably mentions this problem (as it's apparently well known
in the C library circles) and might mention a better alternative..?
(This is how I found the _snprintf_s() Microsoft function)
