-----------------------------------------------------------
Commit ca7d3461462f1ca749046a544e6bc0294164a1b1 in qpid-dispatch's branch
refs/heads/master from Jiri Danek

DISPATCH-1262: fix GCC 8.2 format-truncation error in router/src/main.c
Gcc warns because `getcwd` on Linux may allocate and return new buffer,
so don't ignore the returned value. And cur_path may in theory be null
going in if previous `calloc` failed.
It is unlikely we would end up with cur_path = NULL as parameter to `%s`
in a formatting string later below, but it is possible, given very
careful timing and sufficiently malicious user, I think.
Change is made to silence GCC warning, so that ``-fsanitize=undefined` compiles.
This closes #448.

> Key: DISPATCH-1262
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-1262
> Project: Qpid Dispatch
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: Backlog
> Environment: Fedora 29 or anything with GCC 8.2, when the mentioned
> flags are used.
> Reporter: Jiri Daněk
> Priority: Major
>
> When {{-DUSE_SANITIZERS=ON}}, this (in RelWithDebug build) results in
> {{-fsanitize=undefined -O2}} options being passed to GCC (as well as others,
> but these seem relevant).
> GCC then fails the compilation

> I believe that GCC should much improve diagnostic messages, if it intends to
> search for dataflows like this, because the error does not give context.
> It is IMO legit, just super unlikely thing to happen, though.
