I'm fine with the patch as it stands, but just for future reference (for
you and anyone else), we have functions in the test library called
nul_to_q and q_to_nul that convert NUL back and forth to the letter "Q".
They can make it a bit easier to write tests where we expect some format
to have NULs in it.
