Hi Christos,

Sorry for the late reply.

I hope it's not permanent I'll will check this against the latest version of 
GCC when it's been added to the tree.

I believe this is the same issue as metioned in hacks for libXfont2 (while it 
pertains to strsuftoll - which uses strncpy internally which is the same in 
this case).

I'm hoping to pigyback the existing hacks entry and have written to Rin and 
Matthew about it - just waiting to see their thoughts on this.

Hopefully with the GCC update this is no longer necessary.  I will check when 
that happens.

Best regards,

Nat
