As of the conversion to safe_strcpy() years ago there has been no need
anymore to use snprintf() to prevent storing a not-nul-terminated string.

I realize the current code is not checking the return, but I wonder we 
should rather than silently truncating the string.

This is not a new issue, so it can dealt separately if we decide to 
check the return.

The name field is used only for display purposes, so I guess truncation
wouldn't really be a problem here.
