We should use more portable version of stpncpy without prefix with underscores.
The function __stpncpy was used in initial veersion e65c65fc710fa030bfb8319efc43fcdc9ce5a26f, which was based on http://people.redhat.com/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
patch is simple replacement "s/__stpncpy/stpncpy/"

Sounds like the right thing do to. I was actually suprised that string.h had both functions declared, I was expecting one to be just a #define of the other. But the libc sources indeed only have one definition that aliases to both stpncpy and __stpncpy (which is also visible from the addresses of your nm test).
