Comment:

 I think these patches looks good. Let's get them merged.

 @cyberpunks: Thanks a lot for the work you have put into this ticket (via
 #27629). I think your code looks good and I would have accepted this if
 there wasn't two implementations that was practically the same.

 Let me try to explain a little bit why I ended up picking up the patches
 in PR #316 from Nick: When I review code I start out by looking at the
 "accumulated diff" (I ignore all the individual commits, but just focus on
 what was there before this set of changes vs. what is there after this set
 of changes). Once I'm happy with that, I walk over each individual patch
 to get an idea about the process on how you got there. In Tor, we very
 often use the "fixup" feature of Git for this very reason, so we can
 easily spot which things have been changed since last time we reviewed it.
 I looked at your changes and Nick changes and Nick's changes was easier
 (for me) to follow based on the *commits* themselves. I'm very happy you
 helped identifying the issues with the missing `strlen()` calls in Nick's
 changes, which was indeed bugs in the code. I hope this won't discourage
 you from contributing in the future, since your changes were in fact very
 good.
