It seems to me that the simple answer to your questions is "printf". 
Despite the limitations you mention. I don't think it is entirely true 
that it isn't typesafe, by the way. I mean, there aren't (can't be) 
proper type checks, of course, but e.g. newer versions gcc/g++ will in 
fact issue a warning if there is a mismatch between the format and the 
arguments.
