lo-array-gripes.cc: Remove FIXME's related to buffer size. * lo-array-gripes.cc: Remove FIXME's related to buffer size. Shorten sprintf buffers from 100 to 64 characters (still well more than 19 required). Use 'const' decorator on constant value for clarity. Remove extra space between variable and array bracket.
