Is this actually safe is 'comm[]' is being modified at the same time?
The 'strlen()' will not be consistent with the string copy.

Because that is very much the case. It's not a stable source.

For example, strlen() may return 5. But by the time  you then actually
copy the data, the string may have changed, and there would not
necessarily be a NUL character at comm[5] any more. It might be
further in the string, or it might be earlier.
