Subject: Bug in diag_[v]snprintf

Hi

We found a problem in the implementation of diag_snprintf, and
diag_vsnprintf. The functions effectively write len+1 bytes (instead of len
bytes) to the character buffer.

According to the man page of snprintf this behaviour is wrong:

	 [...]
       strings).  snprintf and vsnprintf do not write  more  than
       size bytes (including the trailing '\0'), and return -1 if
       [...]



Best regards,
Tom
