Woops, SNPRINT is used a lot in the code. If it is true, we need to fix SNPRINT.

With your patch it is also an issue with alignment. See below. I
tried to fix it in-place, but it was too ugly due to too big
indentation.

Here sio_strfaddr( should get +17 spaces, and that makes it hard
to read. So I extracted everything to a new function with lower
indentation.
