Hi Daniel

Thank you for your comment.

This patch changes about the following points.

>  buf.use = 0 means we are using 0 bytes of the buffer. That's the semantic
> of buffer usage, if you really want to make it zero terminated, just use
>        buf.content[0] = 0;

1. This patch initializes the data with "buf.content[0] = 0".

>   use buf->use instead of strlen(buf.content)
>
2. This patch checks the data size with "buf->use".


Thanks,
Masayuki Sunou.
