The ipmi_parse_hex outputs head\0tail.
The tail is excluded from the min calculation for the memcpy.

Subject: [Ipmitool-devel] Closure proposal - ID: 59 - option -y and 00 in       
key string bug

Hello,

I want to close ticket ``59 - option -y and 00 in key string bug'' >>
https://sourceforge.net/p/ipmitool/bugs/59/ <<. I really don't see any
'00' bug in there nor it does much sense as '00' !~ '\0' and '0' !~
'\0'. It just doesn't make sense.
I've tried to supply kgkey with '00' in it as suggested in ticket, but
I couldn't find anything. I admit I don't know how ipmi_parse_hex()
works. I also admit char -> uint8_t is a bit of worry. But,
nonetheless, I can see no bug in there.

And therefore I would like to close this ticket. The only change I
propose is to add memset() in ipmi_parse_hex() and "erase" newly
allocated chunk of memory(diff attached).

Thoughts? Opinions? Ideas?

Thanks,
Z.
