How does that work for strings with embedded nulls? Or are the C routines
simply fooled into seeing a truncated part of the string?
This is for simple char* strings, ASCIIZ. If your C code can accept
embedded nulls, surely has made other provisions - like receiving the
buffer length as a parameter. If not, it will see only a truncated string.
