not to stick my nose in, but what convention makes this a "usually" ?
i'm not a 'C' programmer by any stretch, but i don't _think_ functions
that have a return type of "char*" are that unusual are they ?
in an MD5, i don't think you are going to know how long the returned
string would be right ?
so better to get returned a pointer to string, allocated by the function ?
