Your test program shows a failure with -O2 starting with gcc 7.
However, t

It took me a bit to understand what was happening. Thanks for the
explination. I'm glad the standard has changed to accomodate with
glibc and o

Correct. I added a comment, because the situation in ISO C and POSIX has
changed, no

I see two similar test failures for test-sprintf-posix and
test-sprintf-posix on Fedora 40, gcc 14, glibc 2.39.

$ cd testdir
$ ./configure
$ make check
The following tests fail:
./../build-aux/test-driver: line 1
