Is that the only place it complains ?  We use 'strcpy' in almost
100 places across the codebase....

Is it worth also adding

  G_STATIC_ASSERT(sizeof((struct RamblockDirtyInfo){}.idstr) ==
                  sizeof((struct RAMBlock){}.idstr));

at the top of this file, since both of these fields are expected to
be the same size by this code, to avoid truncation.


With regards,
Daniel
