??!!!  I never signed this off!  I've never seen it before!

'size_t maxlen' would be more explicit.

You could just decrement maxlen instead, and handle maxlen == 0 at the
same time:

                if (maxlen <= 1)
                        goto tail;
                *result = *tptr;
                result++;
                maxlen--;

I prefer to use ARRAY_SIZE(namebuf) instead of sizeof(namebuf).  That
way we break compile if the declaration is changed from an array to a
pointer one day.

Same for the others.
