We use a call to strncpy to work around a TSAN bug (wherein TSAN only
delivers asynchronous signals when the thread receiving the signal
calls a libc function). Unfortunately, GCC 7 inlines the call,
avoiding the TSAN libc trap entirely.
Per Ian's suggestion, use global variables as strncpy arguments: that
way, the compiler can't make any assumptions about the concrete values
and can't inline the call away.
fixes #21196
