Ah... I think I know what's going on. The leftover data in the strbuf is normally (when there is no errors) an unterminated line. So instead of doing: - fprintf(stderr, "%s: protocol error: no band designator\n", me); + strbuf_addf(&outbuf, + "\n%s: protocol error: no band designator\n", + me); you could omit the final \n in the format string and: - if (outbuf.len > 0) - fprintf(stderr, "%.*s", (int)outbuf.len, outbuf.buf); + if (outbuf.len) + fwrite(outbuf.buf, 1, outbuf.len, stderr); strbuf_release(&outbuf); and here a \n could be added before writing out the buffer.
