Stack usage in glibc (vfprintf)

[Jimen.Ching]

Hi,

I was tracking down a bug in my software, and I narrowed it down to a call
to sprintf.  The problem was the stack was being overflowed.  I seems the
vfprintf function requires over 1500 bytes of stack space.  The work_buffer
local variable in vfprintf takes 1000 bytes.  Should a library function
take this much space off the stack?

Are there other functions that require this much stack space?
