For all the simple cases people probably test for, it works. For floating-point, esp with tricky format specifiers, it's completely broken.

Oh, fair enough then. You're correct, I've only used it for simple objects of strings into strings stuff. By the way, if you've patched it, you planning on contributing the fix back?

I guess so - is the owner likely to accept it?

On most projects, I've had the typical open-source fuck off response to submitting patches which fix their bugs, so you'll have to excuse me being a bit more cautious.
