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?
