Yes. I think, best usage next metod:
#define _REATURE_PRINTF_PERCENT__M 

See example glibc, for one point: fdprintf includes if user put
#define _USE_GNU.

But in library there should be all functions, not looking on size. 
Therefore to include strerrno () I not understand your unwillingness. :))

Yes.  Previous my letter was only a question. I at all do not demand from you
heavy work. You very well work on library. Many thanks, Manuel!
