If value_color_snprintf has the prototype mentioned above, I'd have to
build a va_list at each callsite; how is that convenient? Considering
the macro, can we just do

  #define percent_color_snprintf value_color_snprintf

in color.h?

I meant that the function body itself seems to be wrong:

  va_start(args, fmt);
  percent = va_arg(args, double);
  va_end(args);
  color = get_percent_color(percent);
  return color_snprintf(bf, size, color, fmt, percent);

Unless I've misunderstood something horribly, doesn't `percent' just
get assigned to the last argument in the `args' va_list?
