Details:

Running the command:

 > xrd <srv>  getchecksum  <filename> 
   Checksum: crc32 3093407669▒

prints extra character after the checksum value.

It looks like when calling (in src/XrdClient/XrdCommandLine.cc)
 genadmin->GetChecksum((kXR_char *)pathname.c_str(), &ans);
the string "ans" is not terminated with null or at least not in the proper
place. Should the data length returned by GetChecksum() be used?  

int dlen = genadmin->GetChecksum((kXR_char *)pathname.c_str(),&ans);

char *cksum_line = strndup((const char*) ans, dlen);

Cheers,
  Wilko
