I'm with Michael and David on this.
I don't really feel like doing;
- snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "E%s%s\n", + buflen = snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "E%s%s\n", _("could not fork new process for connection: "),
is a good idea. I'm unsure if you're either not aware of the value that snprintf() returns or just happen to think an overflow is unlikely enough because you're convinced that 1000 chars are always enough to fit this translatable string. I'd say if we were 100% certain of that then it might as well become sprintf() instead. However, I imagine you'll struggle to get people to side with you that taking this overflow risk would be worthwhile given your lack of any evidence that anything actually has become meaningfully faster as a result of any of these changes.
I got your point.
Really getting only the result of snprintf is a bad idea.
In this case, the right way would be:
snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "E%s%s\n", _("could not fork new process for connection: "),
buflen = strlen(buffer);
Thus doesn't have to recount buffer over, if rc fails.
Thanks for the tip about snprintf, even though it's not the intention.
