Looks, looks like gcc can do certain compile time bounds checking (probably
for ages but I'm slow) and emits warnings like:
In function 'strcpy',
inlined from 'New_psimage_Ctrl' at psimage.c:357:9:
/usr/include/bits/string3.h:107:3: warning: call to __builtin___strcpy_chk
will always overflow destination buffer
Unfortunately, it's only a warning and as a typically lazy packager who
packages software with lots of compiler warnings, I missed this until it
caused a runtime fortify error check.
So, perhaps the gcc folks can say why this isn't an error?
And perhaps would could grep though all of the build logs for this one?
