Could you please explain why replacing one string with a shorter one
fixes your bug?

Looking further, it seems that this bug is reported upstream as
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1596684&group_id=157043&atid=802212. The
patch attached there is
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/download.php?group_id=157043&atid=802212&file_id=203026&aid=1596684

It looks to me that your patch to utils.c is only one part of what is
needed to fix the bug.

I'll update #63309 shortly.

I agree to uploading pouetchess to edgy-propsed with the complete
patch. Please mention this bug as well in the changelog, so that the
archive admins can see who actually approved the appload.
