Mmm.... knew that. May not have hacked kernel too much, but I have a
fair grasp of C uglyness. the char *foo was put in as a global to
check the value of the char foo[]="foostring" that I put into the
functions.
Now... this is not strictly C-legal, but with gcc, it will autosize
foo[] and copy "foostring" into it. The cool thing is that
sizeof(foo) == strlen(foo)+1.
