Hurmph.. the file:line output of a splat is usually all I look at, also
__WARN_printf() generates such atrocious crap code that try and not use
it.

I suppose I should do a __WARN_str() or something, but then people are
unlikely to want to use that, too much variation etc. :/

Cursed if you do, cursed if you don't.
