PATCH: Bots don't work on 64 bit Intel CPU's

botlib abuses strcpy (source and dest overlap), and the strcpy function for 64
bit intel CPU's in the latest glibc, does not like this causing the bots to not
load.

The attached patch fixes this.

can't reproduce here but you are right about the wrong use. applied, thanks.
Comment 2 Hans de Goede 2009-11-05 08:20:47 EST 
FWIW: Reproducing requires a very recent glibc (such as the on in F-12) and an Intel 64 bit CPU (I tried reproducing first on amd 64 bit, no issue there).

Thanks for applying the patch.
