+   As the output is dependent upon the underlying C library, some conversion
+   specifiers are not supported. On Windows, supplying unknown conversion
+   specifiers will result in 5 <constant>E_WARNING</constant> messages and
+   return &false;. On other operating systems you may not get any
+   <constant>E_WARNING</constant> messages and the output may contain the
+   conversion specifiers unconverted.
