I am running stable/8, and I can confirm that the source tree is 
actually stable/8.

The strcat() puzzled me too.  I do have very few changes in the tree, but they
are not related to this.

(gdb) frame 17

418                             if ((strlen(p) + 1 + strlen(name) + 1) >= sizeof fullname)
419                                     return -1;
420                             (void) strcpy(fullname, p);
