What I committed this afternoon will work on a %qd box, it'll just
choose to insert our homebrew snprintf instead of using the local
version.

Is it worth adding another test cycle to configure in order to use the
native snprintf on these boxes? There are not that many boxes that
use %qd; and it's not real clear that using our own snprintf is a loss
anyway.

Just my $0.02 ...
