Updated by Richard PALO almost 5 years ago

judging by the difference, this is an oversight being corrected in libxml2.

from the libxml2 commit msg:

For https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=761029 
Decorate every method in libxml2 with the appropriate LIBXML_ATTR_FORMAT(fmt,args) macro and add some cleanups following the reports.

apparently because this is more or less a passthrough to vsnprintf...

since this is an external dependency, probably best to put in a macro with
a guard using simply char* when LIBXML_VERSION >= 20904
then both old and new will work.
