Or are > both GCC and Clang (trunk) incorrect? Clang trunk is saying something factually incorrect because it says the output `will always be truncated`, when in fact `__builtin_snprintf(buf, 2, "%#x", n);` doesn't trigger truncation if `n` is zero. GCC is correct but is more conservative than clang's `ALWAYS be truncated` diagnostics. GCC's warning message is `... directive output MAY BE truncated` . GCC doesn't warn on it when `n` is known to be zero. (https://godbolt.org/z/E51a3Pfhr) GCC's behavior makes sense here because the truncation does happen whenever `n` is not zero. If the user knows `n` is zero then they have no reason to use `%#x` specifier. So, I think it makes sense to assume `n` is not zero and emit diagnostics, but it definitely needs diagnostics rewording like `is likely to be truncated`.
