    Problem Text
    Test #37 is testing vsnprintf(). Since it uses varargs, the test
    calls va_start() and va_end(). The standard says that these macros
    are defined in stdarg.h, but this test doesn't #include <stdarg.h>,
    so we get unresolved symbol errors during the compilation. If we
    add #include <stdarg.h> to the test, it passes.

    We believe this is a deficiency in test #37. The test should be
    changed to #include <stdarg.h>.
