https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23648

          Issue ID: 23648
           Summary: Replace all sprintf with snprintf
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd

          Reporter: johanengelen weka.io

sprintf may write beyond the buffer passed, snprintf is the safer option.

Recent Clang compiler by default warns on the use of sprintf (deprecated) for
the c++ part of LDC. It'd be good to also remove it from D code. The fix is
usually not so hard.
