An _sprintf that ignores the format specifier is broken, IMO.

If it works the same as sprintf("%t"...) then it will call the _sprintf lfun instead of giving the true basic type for objects. Since most _sprintf's returns a %O-like string regardless of the flag, it doesn't quite fulfill this purpose. This can probably be debated, but I think it'd be more useful if basetype() wasn't possible to fool with _sprintf.
