	man: no entry for asprintf in the manual.

	nm /usr/lib/libc.a | grep sprintf

vsprintf.o:
00000000 T vsprintf
         U sprintf
         U sprintf
         U sprintf
         U sprintf
         U sprintf
sprintf.o:
00000000 T sprintf

	Would seem that asprintf is not as universal as one could hope for.

	I'll come up with a patch later today that will allow building on
	systems that lack asprintf.    malloc(strlen()) can't be _that_
	hard, can it? ;)
