Use e_strdup_append_strings here instead of g_strdup_printf because

2001-10-11  Christopher James Lahey  <clahey@ximian.com>

	* gal/e-text/e-table-text-model.c (e_table_text_model_insert,
	e_table_text_model_insert_length, e_table_text_model_delete),
	gal/e-text/e-text-model.c (e_text_model_real_insert,
	e_text_model_real_insert_length): Use e_strdup_append_strings here
	instead of g_strdup_printf because printf("%.*s") is locale
	dependent on some systems.

	* gal/util/e-util.c (e_strdup_append_strings): New function to
	append a bunch of strings with optional lengths.
