OK. More details:

  - register_printf_function is, AFAIK an old interface and is
    deprecated, although I'd double-check with people here, who
    definitely know more than me.
    That said, it's documented in the libc Info file, or, if
    you prefer Web browsers, here:

    https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Registering-New-Conversions.html

  - these days one is supposed to use the pair register_printf_specifier,
    register_printf_type; man pages, as I said, coming soon.
