I should have added that perhaps its only purpose is to add a trailing '\0'?

Also makes me wonder if the 6 byte size for UTF-8 strings includes a 
trailing '\0'?  If it's not a bug, then should we be using 7-byte 
buffers to accomodate the trailing '\0'? Anyone know the max size of a 
UTF-8 string?
