Re: missing stdio.h prototypes

Hi,

I noticed a couple of missing prototypes in stdio.h, siscanf and
viprintf, the attached patch adds these.

newlib 1.14.0 added a dprintf prototype which I commented locally. Is
this a standard function? This is a name I've used for quite some time
for debug output and usually define as a macro.

dprintf is provided by GNU glibc. It is not a standard function, but
it is commonly used. The manual page mentions that fdprintf would have
been a better name, but it is too late for that now.

Cheers,
Shaun
