Probable cut&paste typo - use the correct field size.

Huh, that's been there forever, I wonder why we haven't seen crashes?
Oh, I see, name and authname both have the same size.

Anyway, makes sense, thanks.  Will apply for 5.3.

(Unless someone else is getting this; I didn't get copied on the rest of
the series.)

It's generally hard to cc everyone on treewide fixes like this.

There's no good mechanism I know of.
vger mailing lists reject emails with too many addressees.

Do you have an opinion on adding the stracpy macro which
could avoid many of these defects?

Yeah.  I guess what I don't understand is why this patch is part of a
series at all.  It makes me wonder if there's some dependency I missed
or if the 0/8 mail actually asked somebody else to apply it.

Whatever, I guess I'm being silly, it clearly stands alone.  Applying
for 5.3.

I don't have an opinion.
