the strncmp calls were removed on purpose. Making you sit there and
count the characters is error prone. strcmp in blob is just a macro:

#define strcmp(s1, s2) \
	(__builtin_constant_p(s1) ? strncmp(s1, s2, sizeof(s1)) : \
	(__builtin_constant_p(s2) ? strncmp(s1, s2, sizeof(s2)) : \
	unsafe_strcmp_call(s1, s2)))

If one of the arguments is not a constant, then it will cause a link error.
Otherwise, it will count the number of characters for you, and replace the
call with strncmp
