There is another problem which I just noticed: strncpy is used improperly. strncpy does *not* copy a NULL-terminator to the destination if the string is chopped off due to the length restriction, hence in this case, fftest and ffmvforce (and possibly other tools) end up with a non-null-terminated string.
A possible solution would be to set device_file_name[255] = 0; and then use 255 as limit for strncpy. Note that this is NOT fixed by my patch.
