    But the work must definitely be reviewed.  For every 50 string functions
    you replace you have a good chance at introducing 1 new bug :-)


Just out of idle curiosity...


	neptune# cd /usr/src.pp
	neptune# egrep -r "strcpy|strcat|sprintf|vsprintf" \
		> /root/unsafe.string_functions.txt
	neptune# wc -l /root/unsafe.string_functions.txt
	   14826 /root/unsafe.string_functions.txt

:-)
