Package: mingw32-runtime Version: 3.12-1 Severity: wishlist The latest upstream release provides C99 compliant implementations of snprintf and vsnprintf. I'm unsure what severity to give this, since code expecting C99 behaviour will potentially have security bugs when compiled with runtime 3.12. However, I decided wishlist might be appropriate since this is a behaviour change from previous versions.
>From the release notes: As of 2007-08-25, an additional release snapshot has been added, capturing some CVS updates since the original 2007-08-03 release date. Of particular significance is the inclusion of fully C99 conformant implementations of snprintf() and vsnprintf(). These *replace* the prior implementations, which were simply redirected calls to Microsoft's _snprintf() and _vsnprintf() functions, and were incompatible with C99. Users requiring the old Microsoft behaviour *must* now use the uglified Microsoft function names. Thanks, Kevin. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
