Bug 1219: snprintf requirement to fail when n > INT_MAX conflicts with C OPEN
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1219

Action: Nick (on his return) to ask C committee for guidance, whether
an n > INT_MAX but less than SIZE_MAX, where SIZE_MAX is between,
inclusively, INT_MAX+1 and UINT_MAX (or higher on 64-bit architectures)
may be a preemptive reason to fail the interface, without examining
any other arguments.
