There was a bit of discussion on IRC about this, and one notion was
brought up, but not yet explored:
17:23 < dmacks> That secure/_string.h error is probably triggered by the
FORTIFY_SOURCE flag...adds some strict safety
controls on
memory and other "likely mistakes", so unsetting the
flag would
maybe fix the build but doesn't change the apparent
fact that
the code itself is bad.
