The normalize_path_copy function needs an output buffer that is at least as long as its input (it may shrink the path, but never expand it). However, this test program feeds it static PATH_MAX-sized buffers, which have no relation to the input size. In the normalize_ceiling_entry case, we do at least check the size against PATH_MAX and die(), but that case is even more convoluted. We normalize into a fixed-size buffer, free the original, and then replace it with a strdup'd copy of the result. But normalize_path_copy explicitly allows normalizing in-place, so we can simply do that.
