usr.bin/xargs strnsubst.c
Log:
Fix a buffer overflow. This is the same bug as is corrected in rev.
1.7, but the correction is different: Rather than making sure the
string we're constructing doesn't grow too large, we realloc() to make
sure the buffer is large enough.
This violates the IEEE Std 1003.1-2004 standard, but retains backwards
compatability.
