exim apparently uses printf("%n"), which is currently forbidden (libc
calls abort(3)).
I don't want us to fix all the %n uses in the ports tree, but instead
wait for user reports. Though for some software like exim it makes
sense to help users avoid such a hard crash.
The diff below doesn't pretend to fix all uses of %n in the exim source.
There may be others that can't be flagged by the compiler (support for
that hesn't been committed yet) because of indirections through wrapper
functions.
ok?
