We currently return an invalid non-NULL pointer, ZERO_LENGTH_PTR, which I have set to ((void *)-8).We can change ZERO_LENGTH_PTR to be whatever we want, including making it a pointer to valid memory like the address of a dummy global.
The standard however demands a unique pointer to be returned - we can't return a constant pointer. I think rounding up to the minimal size sounds good.
