iprconfig buffer overflow in disk configuration menu

iprconfig has a buffer overflow in the disk configuration menu. The bug is not new, but the string checking functions now identify it and abort() the program.

Thanks Anton. I've committed this upstream:

Wendy - can you get this integrated into Ubuntu 15.04 as well as anywhere else it needs to go?

This is fixed in wily, but will need an SRU for vivid (and perhaps trusty?).

The patch has been integrated into the latest iprutils and should be in the latest Ubuntu release.
