The following series adds my own implementations of strlcpy() and strlcat() in patch 1 and changes the code to make use of them in the following patches but the last two: Patch 5 just eliminates a line of useless code I found while searching for potential users of the introduced functions, patch 6 sanitizes a call to strncpy() in misc/lnstat_util.c without using strlcpy() since lnstat is not being linked against libutil.
I implemented both functions solely based on information in libbsd's man pages, so they are safe to be released under the GPL.
