To be honest, at this point I don't trust ap_php_s*printf with my
data.
If ap_php_snprintf is meant as a drop-in replacement for snprintf,
then I don't see what would break if I did exactly that (before
recompiling all of PHP + extensions).
I wound up putting #undef snprintf in the extencsion's header file,
and that fixed it, but to be honest, I'm shitting bricks from fear
that other parts of the installation are broken as well, and will
break my code in totally unexpected places, and damage the data in
new ways.

Yup, I did.
