You probably want
	http://cvs.jankratochvil.net/viewcvs/captive/src/libcaptive/include/captive/macros.h?rev=HEAD
	-> captive_printf_alloca(format,args...)

There are many other handy macros permitting syntax like:
	some_struct_t *struct_pointer;
	captive_new(struct_pointer);

without duplicating any information like the types if using just g_new().
