  r318790:
  Fix a buffer overflow in bootparamd(8)
  
  If /etc/bootparams contains a line with an excessively long pathname, and a
  client asks for that path, then bootparamd will overflow a buffer and crash
  while parsing that line.  This is not remotely exploitable since it requires
  a malformed /etc/bootparams file.
