One problem I've seen people have with strstr(): they tend to pass the
arguments in the order they're used to hearing them ("...finding a
needle in a haystack..."). It's "strstr(haystack, needle)". That's
the only thing I can think that would make strstr() behave
incorrectly, assuming that you are passing two non-NULL strings.
