This warning is valid and highly desirable. Any call to printf with a single
non-string-literal argument is almost surely an extremely serious security bug.
And there's rarely a legitimate reason to make such a call; the closest thing
to a legitimate use I can think of would be lazy/sloppy use of gettext. If the
string is not a format string, you should use fputs or fwrite to print it.
