You replace a bounded string copy by an unbounded strict contat.

Should you use strlcat() instead ?
Hi Christophe,

Why? If I understand correctly, both the destination and source string are
NULL-terminated (see module_flags()). So, strcat() should be sufficient.
Are you sure you will never ever end up with a string longer than the 
length of last_unloaded_module ?
