Speaking for FreeBSD:
% svn log -r21674 printf.3

The following patch to lib/libc/stdio implements positional arguments in
a manner consistent with other implementations. Its done in a way that
adds only a tiny amount of overhead when positional arguments are not used.
I also have a test program to go with this, but don't know where it belongs
in the tree.
