Good question: which do you want them to refer to?
I have already rewritten this file pretty much from scratch once in
2006, so I'm understandably not too eager to do it again :-) But if we
must, then we must.
I do not see any clear way to support target types while still taking
advantage of the host printf, however. Perhaps I should go back to my
prototype patch for line wrapping, which would let us import bits of
"gnulib". Which has a nice thorough printf format string parser
that we might be able to reuse.
