So somewhat off-topic, but this reminds me of a question I've been
meaning to ask: What makes it safe to stash the pointer values in
vbin_printf and only dereference them later in bstr_printf? For plain
pointer printing (%p) it's of course not a problem, but quite a few of
the %p extensions do dereference the pointer in one way or another (at
least %p[dD], %p[mM], %p[iI], %ph, %pE, %pC, %pNF, %pU, %pa and probably
soon %pg).
