Subject: [PATCH] jent: use safe format string parameters
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2015 15:41:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150724224127.GA29924@www.outflux.net> (raw)

Since the API for jent_panic() does not include format string parameters,
adjust the call to panic() to use a literal string to avoid any future
callers from leaking format strings into the panic message.
