> We want to concatonate join string one, a '/' character, string two and
> then a NUL terminator.  The destination buffer holds ori_gf->gf_pathlen
> characters.  The strlen() function returns the number of characters not
> counting the NUL terminator.  So we should be adding two extra spaces,
> one for the foward slash and one for the NUL.
