Comment(by strk):

 Beside this big changes, what strikes me is that the code in
 stringbuffer_avprintf is just _hoping_ to have enough space for writing
 the output and if not, hoping for one-more-bit to make a difference, which
 is kind of luck-based.

 I keep thinking that for 2.0 having the new string allocated would save us
 some headaches.
 Then auditing for callers to see how they could do to get better
 performance.
