Clearly this was also the concern of the original author, who, to avoid
any assumption, decided to use strncpy to avoid buffer overflows. Simply
he/she thought that his/her sizeof(to) was referring to the size of the
original data structure in OBAtom (_type[6]), while it was actually
referring to the size of the data structure passed to the Translate()
function, that is, char *.
