In apt-inst/contrib/arfile.cc:99, the available space in the buffer 'S' is
computed with "strlen(S)".
I think that shuld be "sizeof(S)", as the content of S is undefined at this
point.
This only matters for names longer than 16 characters, and luckily normal .deb
files don't have member names that
long, I think.
