Try LSC 3.0. Set the sprintf project to code resource and do a build library.
Remember to use SetUpA4() RestoreA4() in your main(). This is straight from
the manual, and I havent done it yet, though I just researched it because
I need sprintf real soon now for some code i'm writing.

Alternately, if your company (or is it u :-) is too stingy to buy lsc 3.0,
just hack the printf*.c sources provided is LSC 2.*.
