  Log:
  Fix a classic bug: copying a Haskell string with one of the C string
  functions (in this case strncpy()) is wrong when the string contains
  '\0' characters.

  The symptom in this case is that Happy parsers created with -ag don't
  work in GHCi, because the state tables are encoded as strings
  containing lots of '\0' elements.
