    Log Message:
    Remove junk/garbage fields from structures

    These aren't needed, and don't really enable extension, so since
    we're forcing a reset anyway, eliminate them now.

    Log Message:
    Don't copy uninitialized bytes into/out of buffers

    Instead of memcpy() in and out, use strncpy() with an explicit NUL
    termination. This ensures NUL padding is used for strings, and any uninitialized data left over is cleared before being put in a file.
