I have several sprintf statments in the form:
sprintf( someNullTerminatedString, "some message %#s", someLengthPrefixedString );
I get the following warning when compiling (this is a Carbon app):
	'#' flag used with '%s' printf format
Is this just a warning that the code is less portable? Or, is it the case where this is deprecated and should be avoided?

What OS lets you use # with %s in (s)printf? A quick Google search brought back only printf man pages that say that # has no effect on %s. What alternate form could a string have?
