Crash on showing other players financials

On Stephenson-Siemnes server game, we have a player with quite long name:
"Passengerpigeon's overland travel, city traction and shipping company"

I wanted to look at his finances graphs, but simutrans crashed with:

*** buffer overflow detected ***: /home/vladki/simutrans-ext/simutrans-extended terminated

And long backtrace.

But I can see finances of other players without any problems. So I suspect that the player extremely long name or special characters are the problem.

Thank you for your report. I believe that I have now fixed this. I should be grateful if you could re-test with the next nightly build.
