Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] remove all uses of printf's %n

Yes, that's the fallback, but it requires an ugly dummy pointer argument.
And some extra kludgery in the code because pointer() doesn't have access
to the start-of-buffer address.
I'd prefer something that could be detected with the information available
in the switch(spec.type) in vsnprintf() itself.
It is, however, available as a last resort.
