Existing `blogic_msg' invocations do not appear to overrun its internal buffer of a fixed length of 100, which would cause stack corruption, but it's easy to miss with possible further updates and a fix is cheap in performance terms, so limit the output produced into the buffer by using `vsnprintf' rather than `vsprintf'.
