> Code looks like this
> {code}
> strncpy(buf, ipaddr.c_str(),ipaddr.size());
> {code}
> But should be
> {code}
> strncpy(buf, ipaddr.c_str(),ipaddr.size()+1);
> {code}
> In order to make sure there is at least 1 null terminating byte.  If we could 
> run the minidfscluster an another process and run valgrind on the libhdfs++ 
> tests this would show up really quickly as a sequence of invalid reads when 
> that const char* was passed to std::string::string(const char*), strlen, or 
> strcpy.
