On reflection, I think C is a language where this kind of error is less likely. In languages where it's easy to cram strings together and parse the results, people are more likely to do it. Those things are a bit of a pain in C, so people are more likely to do things another (and in this case better) way. Of course, that was obviously no guarantee.
