This was fixed correctly in gcc-4.8 (in utopic), but not in gcc-4.9:
$ cat format-extra-args.c
#include <stdio.h>
/* printf extra arguments example */
int main(void)
{
printf("%s\n", "argument 1", "argument 2");
return 0;
}
$ gcc-4.9 --version
gcc-4.9 (Ubuntu 4.9.0-4ubuntu4) 4.9.0

$ gcc-4.9 -O2 -o format-off format-extra-args.c -Wno-format
format-extra-args.c: In function ‘main’:
format-extra-args.c:12:2: warning: too many arguments for format
[-Wformat-extra-args]
printf("%s\n", "argument 1", "argument 2");
^
With the fixed version in gcc-4.8, the output should look like so
$ gcc-4.8 --version
gcc-4.8 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-23ubuntu1) 4.8.2

$ gcc-4.8 -O2 -o format-off format-extra-args.c -Wno-format

gcc-4.9 still needs the attached patch applied.
