The System V "lint" libraries contain items of the form:
/*VARARGS1 PRINTFLIKE1*/
int printf(s) char *s; { return (0); }
Unfortunately, the System V "lint" doesn't implement "PRINTFLIKE". However, a
Ninth Edition manual I saw did document "PRINTFLIKE", so maybe it is
implemented there; then again, "NOSTRICT" was documented in some versions of
the "lint" manual page although it wasn't implemented.
