Mention that these functions mishandle large floating point
precisions on Solaris 10. The same bug is also present in Solaris
8, and I assume earlier. This causes "cd gnulib-tests; make
check" to fail on Solaris 8 (and I assume, later) when building
the latest coreutils, in test-vasprintf-posix's call to
my_asprintf (&result, "%.4000f %d", 1.0, 99). I have not checked
the wide flavors (e.g., wprintf) so this patch just updates the
documentation for the narrow ones.
