Copying gcc list for additional thoughts on a possible bogus warning.

The first attempt to fix (above) is completely off. I have tried various
combinations of code changes and I am beginning to think the warning is bogus:
In function ‘btoa_big’,
inlined from ‘write_b’ at ../../../trunk/libgfortran/io/write.c:1217:11:
../../../trunk/libgfortran/io/write.c:1052:6: warning: writing 1 byte into a
region of size 0 [-Wstringop-overflow=]
1052 | *q = '\0';
| ~~~^~~~~~
Using gdb I have watched the pointer address stored in q and the setting of the
string of bytes doing the binary to ascii conversion. I have also checked the
length of the buffer being used and its is what I would expect with length of 129.
However, the warning only goes away if I add an additional 8 bytes to the buffer
(suspicious).
So doing the following eliminates the warning:
diff --git a/libgfortran/io/write.c b/libgfortran/io/write.c
index 4ef35561fdd..fd0e46851e4 100644

Any suggestions? I am certainly not seeing it.
