Description:Currently, the only way to know the necessary privileges to assign to a user is to look through the source code to find what each command's privileges are.  This lets the administrator issue a simple command to find the necessary privilege string.

The authority_to_str function isn't quite right, but it's probably not terribly relevant.  If you're going to try to make it safe though, you mind as well do it right :)

The problem is that the "running total" increases by the legnth no matter whether the full length was copied, and the result is that the length will become a negative number and strncpy does NOT treat a negative number as 0 but as infinity.

OK, fixed.
