While this is correct for the current definition of the array the
question is why is the array and the strncpy not defined as 2 *
HEXKEYBYTES + 1.

The memcmp starts at HEXKEYBYTES and continues for KEYCHECKSUMSIZE.  In
fact, the array should be HEXKEYBYTES + KEYCHECKSUMSIZE in size (no NUL
byte needed).  So, why doesn't it do it like this?
