You are right.  I apologize; I messed up here.

However, I am unclear what you mean by not even testing the patch,
though.  I couldn't find any unit-test harness or any other kind of
testsuite for the string_list API.  I did review the code to make sure
it looked right to me, added a use of your new function, and ran the
standard testsuite in addition to my "re-merge all merges from
git.git" testcase.  I even single stepped through the code in a
debugger for good measure.  What testing did you want to see in
particular?
