OK, here's a patch that gets past the overflow; I think it's safe; there are a 
LOT of fixed length string buffers in the
code.  This stretches this 10 char to 12 char to fit the string being copied 
in; there are places that append that string
into others in other bits of the code, but I *think* they're big enough.

Having said that, I can't get it to run, it's failing to open the
plughw:0,0 audio device for me.

Upstream looks pretty dead.
