  16.      _VVVV_kkkk_FFFF_oooo_rrrr_mmmm_aaaa_tttt passes its arguments to _v_s_p_r_i_n_t_f, which writes to a buffer that
  17.      is owned by VVVVkkkkFFFFoooorrrrmmmmaaaatttt.  What is written must not exceed BUFSIZ, as defined
  18.      by _s_t_d_i_o._h.  The caller must not attempt to free the buffer returned by
  19.      VVVVkkkkFFFFoooorrrrmmmmaaaatttt.
  20.  
  21.      The buffer contents remain valid only until the next call to VVVVkkkkFFFFoooorrrrmmmmaaaatttt.
  22.      In particular, the buffer will remain valid across function calls only as
  23.      long as those functions, and anything they call, do not also use
  24.      VVVVkkkkFFFFoooorrrrmmmmaaaatttt.
  25.  
  26.      (_l_i_b_v_k uses its own internal version of VkFormat, so calls to it are
  27.      safe.)
