Can there be a buffer overflow here?  If not, then strcpy is just fine
to use.  Do you see a potential code path here that actually is a
problem using this?

You mean 'grep'?  :)

If not, what exactly does "Flawfinder" point out is wrong with the code
here?  At first glance, I can't find it, but perhaps the tool, and your
audit, provided more information?
