[zile-devel] Portable vasprintf

[Nicolas Duboc]

   Hi,

 While preparing the Debian package of 2.0betas version I realized that
I have not sent you a patch I had applied to 1.7beta3 Debian version.

 I had to make this change to make zile compile on Debian s390 Sarge
port. It uses the ANSI C99 va_copy instead of direct vargs manipulation.
It seems that we can't manipulate vargs on s390 as on i386.

 I don't know if including this patch in zile is an option. It certainly
depends on availability of va_copy on architectures that you targets. If
you don't include it I will keep this patch in Debian version since
va_copy is available on all Debian Sarge ports.

 Cheers,
