There were simple and worked. You can see that older prf.c versions did
not use the va_* macros at all, so I looked for a working set to avoid
having to depend on compiler headers for the kernel compilation.

The Watcom implementation of va_* is a little unusual, and comparing it we
can even see that the bcc macros give more compact code than
#include <stdarg.h>.
