This uggly use of p and the later snprintf could possibly result coredumps
which would be uggly. However you cannot very easily exploit the buffert
overflow in it because the buffer is a static buffer, not on the stack.

Uh... correction, no buffer is overflowed, at least not when writing to it
;) Sorry for the typo, it's five o'clock in the night here, so I blame the
typo on lack of sleep.
