No, one cannot call a C subroutine with a variable argument list,
for the simple reason that it is prohibited. See page 400
"A Fortran procedure interface is interoperable with a C function
prototype if ... the prototype does not have variable arguments
denoted by the ellipsis".
In fact the two C prototypes that your example translates to
have different type and are neither compatible with one another
nor with printf. I.e. it would not be standard C either.
