  yeah the strncmp use is vrong, it should be fixed. But I dislike the
change from strncpy to strcpy. I agree that affecting local variables
with fixed strings is not nice, but as we try to chase strcpy call out
of the code those will show up, le'ts use
    strncpy(..., "weight", 6)
instead. Okay ?
