>Description:
	

the follow example is used in stdarg.3:

<SNIP>
          void foo(char *fmt, ...)
           {
                   char c, *p, *s;

                   va_start(ap, fmt);
                   while (*fmt)
                           switch(*fmt++) {
<SNIP>

This code is invalid, and instead should be:

          void foo(char *fmt, ...)
           {
                   char c, *p, *s;
		   va_list ap;

                   va_start(ap, fmt);
                   while (*fmt)
                           switch(*fmt++) {
<SNIP>

This code is invalid, and instead should be:
