This patch reduces code size by 224 bytes on my Core 2 with gcc 4.4.1:

      text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
     15767       0       8   15775    3d9f lib/vsprintf.o-before
     15543       0       8   15551    3cbf lib/vsprintf.o-after

and implements some cleanups.

as per suggestions from Ingo and Frederic (thanks!)

and split into separate patches
