Those "spelling error in binary" checks use `strings` on the final
binary, so there isn't really much to see often.
% strings dhcpcd|grep -E 'addres\b'
Duplicate addres
In your case at most you could get this much.
Note that strings can also "leak" from statically linked/inlined functions.
I tried a quick codesearch.d.n lookup, but I couldn't spot a string like
that.
