            Bug ID: 171494
           Summary: check-webkit-style: Enable sprintf(), strcat(),
                    strcpy() and printf() format checks
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

I'm guessing these checks were disabled because all of the "runtime/printf" checks together were too verbose when the original check-webkit-style was committed in 2009 in r45857.

However, this meant that functions like strcat() and strcpy() were allowed to be committed into the WebKit tree at various times (see Bug 170994).

We should turn these checks back on under a new category.
