+dnl @synopsis AC_FUNC_SNPRINTF
+dnl
+dnl Checks for a fully C99 compliant snprintf, in particular checks
+dnl whether it does bounds checking and returns the correct string
+dnl length; does the same check for vsnprintf. If no working snprintf
+dnl or vsnprintf is found, request a replacement and warn the user
+dnl about it. Note: the mentioned replacement is freely available and
+dnl may be used in any project regardless of it's licence (just like
+dnl the autoconf special exemption).
