Again, there's something wrong with your automated system. Is it LLM? :-)
The message is misleading, also because not only snprintf() touched, but
also cleanup() logic.

This has to be fixed, otherwise patch can't be accepted.

And this cleanup has an issue. See below..

This test has to work also for `-i 0` option. The way we can make it
works is the following:

- "first" should be initialized to -1, otherwise "first < 0" won't be
  catched
- the fds should be initialized with -1 after SAFE_MALLOC(), otherwise
  you will fail the cleanup if malloc will break the test
