The p->u.board.status is allocated and set a string as
"No" once within allocating a node of BNODE type.
But it also set again with kstrdup() in case of "STATUS"
or "ID". If it is not allocated yet, use kstrdup().
If not, use just memcpy().

I don't think a 2 char buffer is always large enough to hold the new
strings.
Just free it and allocate again.

Actually, please just send the whole set again. I really want Mark on
the CC list so he's reviewing these.

OK. I already sent 6/8, 7/8 and 8/8 again. I just resend rest of them.
