  Thanks for this ARI enhancement,
I did notice once that static buffers should use 
xsnprintf function instead of xstrprintf that allocate a
buffer using global memory, but forgot to change ARI doc
for this rule...

  I hope this will facilitate reduction of the number of 
occurrences of this warning:
  Currently, "Don't use sprintf" rule is found
184 times ...

  So please don't hesitate to fix those issues
under the OBVIOUS rule!
