Sorry for the inconvenience - I recently added an asctime() 
implementation that relies on snprintf() to exist, but our BSD based 
stdio didn't have it. I've fixed it now, thanks for the report.
As a temporary fix, you could remove src/kernel/libroot/posix/time/
asctime.c from the build (dunno when SF will update anonymous CVS).

Bye,
