I've changed my mind on this.  There doesn't appear to be a chance of a
buffer overflow as the size of the buffer is checked before copying into
it, but this just looks like it's begging to cause us trouble down the
road.  I'll push a package with the fix and request SRU.

Thanks again for reporting the bug and identifying the patch!
