sleuthkit: just a buffer overflow in ext2fs... it actually builds; just
brp check raises it. Wondering why it's not triggered with gcc 4.6 though.

See section "General Optimizer Improvements" in
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.7/changes.html in the paragraph "A string
length optimization pass has been added...."

Thanks Christian!

Read through the code, identified the error, agreed with the compiler
and fixed it :)

Patch has been submitted to the devel project (no upstream contact
just yet.. will likely do that in the evening).

Best regards,
Dominique
