FWIW we had the same problem in MinGW, and Hannes Sixt solved it:

That might give you an idea how to solve the issue. Maybe you even make a
git patch out of it? With a Makefile variable BROKEN_SNPRINTF=YesPlease,
maybe?
Hmmm. Looking at that change makes me wonder if that solution
is Kosher. The value of the va_list you pass to vsnprintf() is
unspecified after the call.
It may be Ok as mingw-only "compatibility wrapper", but I think
you have to be a bit careful. It is not a general solution for
any BROKEN_SNPRINTF.
That's what va_copy() is for.
