Another big advantage to varargs is it can, on some systems, be implented
without source to the C compiler. I understand why this was not of
concern to ANSI, but it is to those of us who need varargs/stdargs
functionality on systems without ANSI C compilers.
(I've written a copuple of varargs implementations.)

Hiding differences does not make them go away. Accepting
differences makes them unimportant.
