seems somewhat esoteric, as format will usually be static anyway.
but might throw in a quick `format=format?format:"(null)";

strncpy/strncat? (some compilers/static code checker might sooner or later complain otherwise)

seems needless as it's all static strings, i'd leave that to whoever adds that code-checker.

btw: why 9? the terminating zero is already at the end, or? So I'd expect
8 (= strlen("libsml: ") + ... + 1 (\n) + 1 (term. zero)

this forces anybody using this to call va_* and vaprintf himself. (see the example in sml_error_default() below)
i wonder if this is any good,
or if we should maybe rather have an intermediate function and pass out the completely formatted string?

@mbehr1:any idea on this one?

might also pass more details, like a loglevel (warning/error).

@jahir: |
a basic attempt at fixing #17 .
replaces hardcoded
fprintf()calls with ansml_errorfunction pointer that can be overwritten by code using the library.a default is provided that mimics the old behaviour (write to stderr with a "libsml:" prefix and appended newline.
includes a test, test also demonstrates usage.
note that this breaks backwards compatibility (code assuming
sml_errorexists won't build or run with older versions of the library),so we should probably bump the version when merging this.
also we should consider if we maybe want a more sophisticated interface.
