Hm... On my Linux with glibc 2.1.2, swprintf() is not defined at all.
However, it is defined for the CVS development tree of glibc, where
it is declared as

extern int swprintf (wchar_t *__restrict __s, size_t __n,
                     __const wchar_t *__restrict __format, ...)

which looks correct.
