That is a good point.  I didn't see any issues during testing but it is
a change from what the old code did.  Perhaps I should be using memcmp
instead of strncmp.  On the other hand I don't know if the compiler
would ever call compare_names with a NULL in the string.  I *think* the
names being compared are always variable names which shouldn't have
NULLs, but I am not positive of that.
