For me 'printf' is mainly a debugging helper.  Example of "important
interface" is X11.  Part of that interface is variadic and there is
no way around this.  Concerning safety, when using FFI there is
always problem of "passing" type information across the interface.
Smaller or bigger part of type information is provide by hand,
which in inherently unsafe.  The point is to minimize and
encapsulate this part so users can assume that it just works.
Variadic functions decrease safety, but IMO this is just modest
decrease compared to "normal" troubls with FFI.

Concerning "inefficient", in cases interesting to me FFI is
inefficient and variadic functions do not change this much.  Simply,
foreign calls are for serious, relatively expensive tasks.

And to make things clear: I do not advocate writing variadic
functions.  But there are already libraries exporting variadic
and FFI should allow using them.
