[Mageia-dev] broken format-error test ?

Hello list.

While trying to rebuild mod_ruby, I get this error:
mod_ruby.c:507:5: erreur: le format n'est pas une chaîne littérale et 
pas d'argument de format [-Werror=format-security]

The line 505 is;
vsnprintf(buf, BUFSIZ, fmt, args);

Apparently, the test fails to recognize the 'fmt' variable as the format...

Unfortunatly, I can't disable the use of those flags in the package, as 
they are actually enforced by apxs usage.
