Brian, Eric,

I just checked into the TPP trunk a fix that corrects the issue.  It turned
out to be an invalid use of strcpy() which doesn't seem to manifest itself
on older versions of glibc/gcc and the platforms we regularly use.

I can provide a patch for your source if you need it or you can get it from
our SourceForge subversion repository.
