(Get the code!)
The use of strncpy and knowing the length of the string is the whole point of the change. strlen is dangerous if the string is not null-terminated and strcpy will happily overflow the target buffer if the source string is too long. The example code I gave is not intended to be a patch, but a starting point for correcting the problem.
