> replaces all usage of unsigned 16 bit variables by the special type 
> "xub_StrLen"

Yes, this is the important first step. C++ could help with finding all these 
places if xub_StrLen was a 
class that did not provide an implicit conversion to an integral type anymore 
when a module has been 
fixed (similar to the gradual changes for warning code, where unchanged modules 
were marked with 
EXTERNAL_WARNING_NOT_ERRORS).

The concept of strlen is so ambiguous that its use cases would benefit from 
some clarification. Using 
the helper class suggested above the different use cases could be explicitly 
differentiated by providing 
methods such as getStrBufferSize(), getUTF16Count(), getUTF32Count()

Finally the concept of strlen should be replaced to an iterator based 
approach...
