I guess, your 'xnxx' means "%cn%c%c", not "%sn%s%s" (which is current
implementation), also at present, "32 - n" is 17, not 4 for snprintf()
length limitation.

If we are always sure it must be no more than 4 characters (at present,
it is, but in the future, I don't know). We can use strcpy() instead of
strncpy() for it -- that will let other readers no doubt.

If we need let custom_builtin_name[*] not only zero terminated, but also
zero pad, we need pass '4' to strncpy() instead of '5', that also will
clear all doubts.

I find it by reading source code, for me, it is simple code, test is
welcomed, but not mandatory.

But it really needs necessary discussion (for modification, and comments).


Thanks.
