[Bug c++/20916] New: va_list passed to a function gets messed up by a call to another function

[moritz at bunkus dot org]

I'll attach a short sample file that works nicely on 32 bit architectures but 
breaks on AMD64. A function taking varargs calls va_start and passes that 
va_list object to another function. This one will output it twice with vprintf. 
Between the two calls to vprintf there's another function call. The second call 
to vprint produces wrong output, e.g.

::mxmsg(1) string honk int 42 string cow!
::mxmsg(2) string  int 1697834872 string 

The same code produces correct output on 32bit platforms.
