The current tftp structure does not work when fortification is enabled. Starting with gcc-4.5, more size checking was added to trigger these. Older versions just didn't have enough information, so they returned -1 as the sizes. First, the tu_stuff field is declared as 1 byte (when it's really an arbitrary length C string), so attempting to strcpy() with it results in crashes. This fails with _FORTIFY_SOURCE=1. Second, even if we change that to [0] (since gcc does not allow flexible array members in an union), gcc is not smart enough to see that they are two overlapping flexible arrays (tu_stuff and tu_data), so it will still trigger an abort with _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2. This is because it thinks that tu_stuff is 0 bytes and tu_data comes after it. Talking to upstream gcc, they don't seem terribly inclined to fix the 2nd issue, but even if they did, we still have plenty of 4.5 and 4.6 installs that would hit problems. So, let's re-order with a few more anonymous structs & unions so that the fields are laid out with a zero-length array always as the last field. This seems to fix things with gcc-4.6, and the tftp-hpa pkg continues to build & work.
