I don't understand the last sentence.  Do you mean to say that the
template is a null-terminated string?

Does this support only a single value?  That's not what one would
normally expect from something called "printf".  If it can pop more
than one value, that should be documented.

What do you mean by "in @code{gdbserver} part"?

This sentence's intent is not clear to me.  Can you explain what were
you trying to say?

Thanks.
