        Log: Subject: Re: new feature: s?printf parameter reordering 
             From: Hugo <hv@crypt.compulink.co.uk>
             Date: Thu, 11 Jan 2001 17:09:03 +0000
             Message-Id: <200101111709.RAA23756@crypt.compulink.co.uk>
             
             - support reordering for all parameters: %, *v, *, .*
             - lay down that the reordering specification must immediately
             follow that parameter: %3$, *v3$, *3$, .*3$
             - fix vectorisation of a zero-length string
             - factor out the code choosing the argument to format
             
             Possibly unwanted side-effects:
             - the special format specifiers ' +-0' must now precede any
             vectorisation specifier. Tests in op/sprintf and op/ver
             have been changed to reflect this.
             - sprintf.t test #214 changed its expectations because in many
             cases, the next parameter has already been consumed when an
             invalid type letter is detected.
             
             Probably wanted side-effects:
             - attempts to format a non-existent parameter will warn as if C<undef>
             - attempt to write to non-existent parameter with '%n' will complain
             of "attempt to modify read-only value" instead of being silent
