Why not just strcpy(), btw?

Because target strings are finite length, and sources are just 
pointers to
some constant strings, which one might make arbitrarily long.

So it's no problem if the name or type string gets cut short?
Just checking :-)

Then it just won't match.

strncpy() won't put a terminating zero on there, is everything
that uses the resulting string okay with that?  Also, if the
name gets cut short, it might match some _other_ expected name.

Have I passed or failed?:-)

Dunno, what is this test, anyway?  :-)
