4 /* snprintf() wrappers.  If the platform has vsnprintf, we use it, else we
5    emulate it in a half-hearted way.  Even if the platform has it, we wrap
6    it because platforms differ in what vsnprintf does in case the buffer
7    is too small:  C99 behavior is to return the number of characters that
8    would have been written had the buffer not been too small, and to set
9    the last byte of the buffer to \0.  At least MS _vsnprintf returns a
10    negative value instead, and fills the entire buffer with non-\0 data.
11 
12    The wrappers ensure that str[size-1] is always \0 upon return.
13 
14    PyOS_snprintf and PyOS_vsnprintf never write more than size bytes
15    (including the trailing '\0') into str.
16 
17    If the platform doesn't have vsnprintf, and the buffer size needed to
18    avoid truncation exceeds size by more than 512, Python aborts with a
19    Py_FatalError.
20 
21    Return value (rv):
22 
23     When 0 <= rv < size, the output conversion was unexceptional, and
24     rv characters were written to str (excluding a trailing \0 byte at
25     str[rv]).
26 
27     When rv >= size, output conversion was truncated, and a buffer of
28     size rv+1 would have been needed to avoid truncation.  str[size-1]
29     is \0 in this case.
30 
31     When rv < 0, "something bad happened".  str[size-1] is \0 in this
32     case too, but the rest of str is unreliable.  It could be that
33     an error in format codes was detected by libc, or on platforms
34     with a non-C99 vsnprintf simply that the buffer wasn't big enough
35     to avoid truncation, or on platforms without any vsnprintf that
36     PyMem_Malloc couldn't obtain space for a temp buffer.
37 
38    CAUTION:  Unlike C99, str != NULL and size > 0 are required.
