As for whether or not its "supported" I have no idea - presumably its not specified in any standard. But yes under OpenBSD, this idiom worked fine for me, but obviously caused problems on other platforms - specifically I noticed issues under Linux. Hi Ray,

Nice to hear from you!

As for whether or not its “supported” I have no idea - presumably its not specified in any standard.

But yes under OpenBSD, this idiom worked fine for me, but obviously caused problems on other platforms - specifically I noticed issues under Linux.

I see no documents saying this is supported behavior. Are you sure snprintf can read from and write to the same string, even on OpenBSD? I see no documents saying this is supported behavior.

I talked about some of the differences between the platforms in terms of the implementation of some well-known C library functions, and hinted at some other incompatibilities. Well, now I’m going to write about some of the other issues I encountered. [...] [...] I wrote the other day about porting software to Linux.
