Thanks, I've applied this.

I did end up making a couple of small changes.

First, I forgot to say earlier that I also wanted to change the
testcase name to stringlist* for clarity.

Second, Travis CI picked up some -Wshadow warnings: in a bunch of
places you were using 'index' as a variable name, which shadows the
libc index(3) function.  I'm not sure why that didn't show up on a
local "make check", but in any case I've changed thos to 'idx' to fix
it.
