As a result, we need extra space to store the result compared to the input value being converted.In the current implementation, the requirements on the size of the output buffer are too conservative; We only have to check if the remaining space is larger than 4 (3 input bytes get converted into 4 Base64 encoded output bytes, plus allowing for a terminating '\0' character) rather than 10.I think you're right, but FYI that during the freeze I'm not looking at these kind of patches. I'll take a closer look after the release.
