The vasnprintf fix from 2007-11-03 has the effect that when a reallocation
is needed, the snprintf() result will fit but the test _whether_ the snprintf()
result did fit fails, so that another round of reallocation is performed.
Inefficient...

* lib/vasnprintf.c (VASNPRINTF): Increase reallocation of snprintf
buffer. Fixes an inefficiency introduced on 2007-11-03.
