Oh!  Thinko.  I just noticed that I substituted '$' for '%' characters.
No.  Snprintfv is a string formatting library that uses the normal conventions,
but is extensible in that you can add or replace handlers for certain 
characters.
I was implicitly suggesting a "ls-special" handler for '{' that would not 
actually
consume printf format arguments and instead pull data from global variables.
