I have always heard that varargs is not very portable.  Is this really
true?  If you know of any machine that is running 4.X BSD, System III/V,
Xenix or any other real unix that doesn't support varargs, please let
me know.

Under AIX there are 3 functions associated with varargs called:
vsprintf, vprintf, vfprintf.  Are these only available on the IBM RT PC?
