>Description:
I am unable to sscanf correctly 2 integers from a string.  A Sample
program that recreates the problem is shown below.  This is a problem
in both libc and libc_r.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

main()
{
	char *tmp = "999 12346";
	char *ptr;
	unsigned short x;
	unsigned short y;
	unsigned short z;
	unsigned int a;
	int result;

	result = sscanf ( tmp, "%d %d", &x, &y );
	z = strtol ( tmp, &ptr, 0 );
	a = atoi ( tmp );
	(void)fprintf ( stderr, "x(%d)y(%d)z(%d)a(%d)\n", x, y, z, a );
	exit ( 0 );
}

>How-To-Repeat:
Run the above program.
