thread-safty of sprintf

Hi
I use sprintf and see effects I do not understand. Quite often, the string
returned from sprintf is "contaminated" in that it starts with an extra
character - always a coma [,]. The rest of the string seems to be ok.
It does not help when I put a zero-character in string[0] prior to calling
sprintf(string,....
Thread-safty could be an issue, because sprintf is used by user threads as
well - but always with a string local to the calling routine.
What does this extra coma try to tell me? Thanks for help.
Robert
