gcc 7 complains that the sprintf() might write a null byte beyond the
end of the tail buffer. That is wrong, but we can silence it by making
i unsigned (it can never be negative anyway, see the if condition right
before). For some reason, this allows gcc to suddenly accurately
calculate the range of i so we can give the tail[] array the exact size
it needs to have (which is 8 bytes) without gcc complaining.
In addition, let us convert the sprintf() to snprintf(), because that is
always nicer, and add an assertion about the range of the return value
afterwards so we can see that "8 - len" will never be negative and thus
"entry->name + MIN(j, 8 - len)" will never be out of bounds.
