But of course, with code containing strcpy() you get this:
  LINK  i386-softmmu/qemu
i386-dis.o(.text+0x3aac): In function `oappend':
/src/qemu/i386-dis.c:4656: warning: strcpy() is almost always misused, p
lease use strlcpy()
/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.11.2: warning: strcat() is almost always misuse
d, please use strlcat()
/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.11.2: warning: sprintf() is often misused, plea
se use snprintf()

With clean code, the only warnings come from X11 libraries:
  LINK  sparc64-softmmu/qemu-system-sparc64
/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.11.2: warning: strcpy() is almost always misuse
