I said that I wouldn't check anything until I had constructed one; for an
example of breakage take a look at the original bug report:

    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2001-07/msg00155.html

The final value should be the same as the input value, but it contains a
zero byte, and that's where the stringbuf stops.

This will be the basis for an actual testsuite entry, but I'm just now
getting to a computer to start working.  So it'll be tonight/tomorrow
before I post a working test.
