Just to clarify, the <stdio.h> file that contained the travesty that I
described earlier was a part of somebody's broken version of an uncompleted
U*IX-like system.

It had not yet been fully tested and was not yet fully operational (as
should be evident, based upon the brokenness of the <stdio.h> file).

I apologize to all concerned if I gave you the impression that the bogus
declaration for vprintf() that I described came out of a working system.
It didn't.
