Thanks.

Just to clarify, I was suggesting strcpy() rather than strncpy().
But I didn't try my suggestion.

In any case, all these ideas, including memcpy() have the underlying
issue that is being flagged below: that the length of the copy is based on
the source not the destination.

As I said earlier, I agree that your changes make this safe,
regardless of what function is used to actually copy the data.
And my suggestion is cosmetic rather than functional.
