The problematic are less common ones, ranging from (not so less

At least as far a OS X goes, it's installed on my machine (10.4.8) as /usr/bin/printf. I don't know if it's part of the Xcode packages, the "BSD Subsystem", or the core OS but I have a hard time imagining someone who didn't have them all installed using GIT.

Also, it's man page identifies itself as
"PRINTF(1) BSD General Commands Manual PRINTF(1)"
so most, if not all, flavors of BSD and BSD-like should be alright.
