They might be annoying to write, but whatever aggravation comes from it is often far outweighed by the benefit. Have you ever considered how many calls it would take to fprintf to print out most formatted strings if you could only print one string/field at a time?
It is not varargs that phail, but std i/o that does. Great way for new C++ students to learn how to abuse operator meanings (I suppose teaching of the principle of least suprise is postponed until a graduate level class these days).

Eh, just pass a list of something. Doing printf() in Haskell is a) a bad idea and b) been done already (see Text.Printf and weep; I did).
