This problem expresses itself as a linker error on a x86_64 Ubuntu 16.04
container.
Linker complained about `strcpy`; which I reported on IRC (I know it's a not
good platform for reporting bugs :D). But I wasn't sure what's the root of
problem. And after fixing ARMv7, that linker error went away.

And the weird thing is that even CI system didn't spot any problem.

Yet another reason for not spoting this problem until recently, is my workflow;
in which I only use switch-dispatching. Because it's very 
debug/debugger-friendly.
(I'm not sure about Jose).
