Kees, some quick questions about your search:
• There are no instances of snprintf in your results.  I could believe that there aren’t any, because this use of snprintf has been broken for longer than this use of sprintf, but I just wanted to confirm this.
• Does your search include DBS style tarball-inside-a-tarball packages?

Matthias, shall I go ahead and use massfile to create 231 bugs for this
issue?  I have attached a proposed massfile template, and tested it by
filing bug #310800 against barnowl.  I noticed though that massfile
didn’t successfully add the sprintf-append tag as I was expecting; I’m
not sure why.
