Hello!
I find this version slightly more confusing but I realize that the
extra vsnprintf() call is unnecessary. So I am ok with this version
except for one question below.
I am curious what David Gow thinks and it would also be good to have
another set of eyes here.
My testing of this showed no problems.
Thanks!

Are we meant to be using the remainder of the last fragment to its
capacity or just start again with a new fragment and leave some of the
last fragment empty? I worry we abandoned using the last fragment or
is that the intention? Let me know if I understand this correctly.
