Error description
Phase 2 of the SM Bootstrap is failing when using a shorter than
the default CBNAMING naming generic server name.  In this case,
BBONM is being used.
GIOP shows C2C2D6D5 D4000001 was used in LocateRequest to
Daemon while the Naming Server (BBONM) was registered in ASR as
C2C2D6D5 D4000000.

* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Unknown object exception during         *
*                      bootstrap processing when the naming    *
*                      generic server name is less than 8      *
*                      characters in length.                   *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
If the naming generic server name is less than 8 characters,
the string is improperly padded to 8 characters when included
in an object key for the WsnNameService IOR used during
bootstrap processing.  The incorrect padding results in a name
that cannot be found when a locate is issued to the Daemon.
The Daemon replies with an unknown object exception.
Problem conclusion
Module bbooriri.cpp has been changed to do a strncpy instead of
a memcpy to only copy the relevant bytes of the string and set
nulls for any remainder rather than always copy 8 bytes and
possibly pick up random characters after a shorter string.
