That first hunk I am citing is unnecessary, because of the lines
right above.  All of the callers of this function pass in a buffer
that is at least 32 bytes in size; this loop aborts if it does not
find a ' ' within the first 10 bytes of the buffer.  We'll never
access memory outside of the buffer during this loop.

So IMHO your first three hunks here aren't necessary.

OK, there's no promise here that we don't roll off the buffer.

This can be fixed in the caller, ensuring we always have the '\0'
at some point in the initial header buffer we were asked to parse:
