[Bug 1644048] Re: 4.3-7ubuntu1.6 FTBFS on arm64 only with format-security error

On the suggested fix: Why even keep the printf? Why not switch to just print?
I'm not a C expert by any means, but shouldn't
printf("%s", <something returning a string>)
be completely equivalent to
print(<something returning a string>)
With the exception that the second one should be very slightly less overhead?
