BTW, *NEVER* modify code that you are moving. Really, *NEVER* do that!

It makes debugging much more difficult, like in this very case.

*ALWAYS* have the moving of code be a separate patch. Keep as most
identical as humanly possible. Even keep white space errors the same!
You can add a clean up patch before or after the move. But never do it
as one patch!
Hi Steve,

I completely agree and noted.
You even stated "no functional change" which was a lie. Converting
strlcpy() to strscpy() *is* a functional change!
Understood.


Kind regards,
