The supposed safety blanket of this function is better handled by
explicit length checking and usages of strlen() on known NULL-terminated
strings rather than hoping things fit in a buffer. We also have no need
to fully fill a PATH_MAX length variable with NULLs every time as long
as a single terminating byte is there. Remove usages of it by using
strcpy() or memcpy() as appropriate, after doing length checks via
strlen().

This was discussed and more or less agreed upon on the mailing list. A
huge checkin, but if we just do it and let people adjust the pain will
end soon enough. Rebasing should be relatively straighforward for anyone
that sees conflicts; just be sure you use the new return style if
possible.
The following semantic patch was used to do the change, along with some
hand-massaging in order to preserve parenthesis where appropriate:
The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows, although some
hand-massaging was done in order to keep parenthesis where appropriate:

Adapting from RPM, follow the [epoch:]version[-release] syntax. We can also
borrow some of their parsing code for our purposes (thanks!). Add some new
tests to our vercmp shell script tester for epoch comparisons, and then make
the code work with these newfangled epoch specifiers.

And change the wording slightly to indicate we *print* a value, not *return*
it. You can't return negative values (they get coerced to 255), so it isn't
worth it to try and cram the result into the return code.

* Add a bunch of static declarations where possible
* Fix void functions to be proper syntax, e.g. void func(void)
* Consistency fixes (such as argv references)
* Remove dead str_cmp() function from testdb
* Remove unneeded config.h header includes
* vercmp: remove completely unnecessary string copying

Include the object file directly from the libalpm version comparison code as
it is the only thing we need. This drops the dependency of vercmp on
libalpm and all of the stuff we know it drags in.

Update the GPL boilerplate to direct people to the GNU website for a copy of
the license, as well as bump all of Judd's copyrights to 2007.

Remove some unnecessary headers in the two utilities as well as fix
a possible non-null termination issue in vercmp.

reordering and adding ones that were forgotten (noticed when trying to
compile after reordering).
* Updated the HACKING file to include information on #include usage.
* print -> vprint in "making dir" function in pactest.
* Modified some dependancy checking
* Changed "performing local database upgrade" message to be more clear
* Change 'usize' to 'isize' in database files
* Scriptlet output is now sent to pacman's log file
* Limited some debugging output to be more clear
