In the context of this patch, vprintf is handled using the exact same 
code-paths.  SO, it'll have its 2nd parameter created with type 'char*&', which 
can cause the same crash that I observed with overloading va_end.  Currently, 
you ARE permitted to redeclare a BUILTIN (see my 1st test above), but a 
conflicting type is an error.  A LIBBUILTIN is a warning to have a conflicting 
redeclaration.
