Michael Kerrisk d1a7f7d9f4 strsep.3: BUGS: explicitly list problems afflicting strsep() 
Previously, the page said this function suffered the same
problems as strtok(), but in fact strsep() doesn't suffer
from all of the same problems as strtok(), so explicitly
list just the problems of strsep() in the strsep.3 page.

Michael Kerrisk 08f8825735 printf.3: Source and destination buffers may not overlap for *s*printf() 
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7075

Some existing code relies on techniques like the following to
append text to a buffer:

    $ cat s.c
    #include <stdio.h>
    char buf[80] = "not ";
    main()
    {
        sprintf(buf, "%sfail", buf);
	puts(buf);
	return 0;
    }

    $ cc s.c
    $ ./a.out
    not fail

However, the standards say the results are undefined if source
and destination buffers overlap, and with suitable compiler
options, recent changes can cause unexpected results:

    $ cc -v 2>&1 | grep gcc
    gcc version 4.3.1 20080507 (prerelease) [gcc-4_3-branch revision 135036] (SUSE Linux)
    $ cc -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE -O2 s.c
    $ ./a.out
    fail
