Yes, the issue is that __mingw_vasprintf assumes POSIX-formatter style. This could lead to troubles for ventures checking for vasprintf/asprintf and assuming it has MS' formatting. Therefore I think it is more sane to disable those two functions in standard-namespace. Of course people can check for __mingw_vasprintf and use it. But so it is clear it has POSIX-formatting (and result) rules.
