Ponderings

Based on those summaries, I'm most interested in the bug and the sprintf one, although perhaps Zoe has interesting perspectives on one or both :)

I used that as an interview question one time - with someone who turned out to have worked at the place that found it :-)

What's distressing is that it got fixed... and then *reverted* due to being consistent with the underlying libc (which is, I think, wrong but in a way that subtle to articulate...)
