Btw., since we are at it: I'd like to use my own printers depending on
a conditional, e.g.:

  let log level fmt =
    if may_log level then
      kfprintf ...
    else
      ???

If the given log level "level" does not allow logging the message
specified by "fmt", I just want to ignore the parameters provided together
with "fmt" - but how?  Is there some (safe) trick, or do I have to write
my own Printf/Format-modules?  I don't want to waste computation time
by unnecessarily converting format arguments to strings, which may be
very costly, e.g. when this would mean converting IPs to hostnames, etc.

Regards,
Markus
