List,

Finally,   every single one of the initially 300+   strcpy() calls in
epan/dissectors  have now been removed.

Only some ~150 strcat() to go :-(


Gerald,   now that all the strcpy() are gone from epan/dissectors   
maybe you can add a
grep strcpy epan/dissectors/*.[ch]
to the buildscripts and make the build fail if a new strcpy() creaps in?
