Quoting the man-page I have locally:
The strcspn() function spans the initial part of the null-terminated
string s as long as the characters from s do not occur in the null-
terminated string charset (it spans the complement of charset).
In other
words, it computes the string array index of the first character of s
which is also in charset, else the index of the first null character.
