Yeah, I think that is Jonathan's favourite approach as well, and I
do not have problem with that.  This transition spatch is unlike the
"avoid strbuf_addf when we do not have to use it" one, in that there
is a definite cut-over where the old way becomes an invalid C code
and compilers can help us spot unconverted places (as opposed to a
valid but unwanted way that can come into the codebase after one
round of code cleaning is done, which is a useful thing to catch
with the "make coccicheck" target).
