Erm... I already have a replacement for the current /usr/bin/printf
codebase ready (e.g. the code itself is already finished) which covers
CR #6649911 and almost all of the other outstanding RFEs and bug reports
for /usr/bin/printf ... right now we're waiting for the ARC case being
started (see
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/ksh93-integration-discuss/2007-December/005831.html
for the draft).
