Log message:
Fix buffer overrun bug.
* m4/gnulib-cache.m4: Augment with gnulib-tool --import
xvasprintf.
* src/format.c [HAVE_EFGCVT]: Delete this code, and use *printf
variant instead, since [efg]cvt are obsolete and our use of them
was buggy (savannah sr #104303).
(format): Fix buffer overflow by using xasprintf.
* doc/m4.texinfo (Format): Expand format test to catch both bugs.
* NEWS: Document this fix.
