Ach, i like it!  I, coming from (basic ->) perl -> java -> C++ ->
C always hated that C string functions which iterate stuff over
and over again, but especially so if working on buffers of which
the length is known.  I mean, you know, if i know i have a NUL
terminated buffer and its length, why in the world should i use
one of those mysterious C string functions?  I know there is one
NUL, it is at LENGTH, dammit!
I like it, several such commits flew by over the last at least
weeks, and i could imagine that in a cache it also matters.
