Looking for kernel routine similar to sprintf(). ISC 1.0.6

Never ran ISC 1.0.6, but "nm -p /unix | grep printf" on 2.2.0 comes up
with:

3490159168 T printf
3490161496 T errprintf
3490161532 T dri_printf
3490316160 D ipprintfs
3490319756 D tcpprintfs

So it appears that the current kernel does include it.  You might do
something similar with yours to see what it reveals.
