	* configure.in: Unfortunately the mingw implementations of
	C99-style snprintf and vsnprintf don't seem to be quite good
	enough, at least not in mingw-runtime-3.14. I don't know exactly
	what the problem is, but it is related to floating point
	formatting and decimal point vs. comma, and the symptoms show up
	in some dialogs in GIMP, presumably also elsewhere. The simple
	tests in AC_FUNC_VSNPRINTF_C99 and AC_FUNC_SNPRINTF_C99 aren't
	rigorous enough to notice, though. So preset
	ac_cv_func_vsnprintf_c99 and ac_cv_func_snprintf_c99 to "no".
