j=strlen(a->h_name)+1;
if ((ret->h_name=Malloc(j)) == NULL) goto
err;
   memcpy((char *)ret->h_name, a->h_name ,
j+1);

[BUG]
memory overrun (one byte at the end of
ret->h_name)
allocating "j" bytes but memcpy "j+1" bytes
next line

[FIX]
dont add one byte, the terminating "0" is
included!
memcpy((char *)ret->h_name, a->h_name , j);

Best regards,
Ralf
