That’s already mentioned in the comments for that bug.  A real solution needs to figure out
a solution to that part too.  So not an easy solve.  Also as mentioned in the comments,
strncpy_s might not be the right API to provide.  strscpy might be better.

It might be that bug report should be retitled and the description rewritten.
