g_snprintf() [1] and g_vsnprintf() [2] since glib 1.3.12 doesn't return -1, and
always NUL terminate the string.

We can clean sources by removing dead/unnecessary code.
In few places I also fix size of buffer to sizeof(buffer) [instead of
sizeof()-1]
(btw. Maybe it's worth to change all of them to sizeof(foo)?)
