I reported these bugs yesterday.  I don't think this is the correct fix.
I thought about making the str_value local to the for loop.  That's sort
of like what your patch does.  But I wasn't sure that was necessarily
correct either.

This code needs more testing as well.  It seems no one has called this
function.

Smatch complained about uninitialized variables as well.  I didn't
bother to report that yesterday but I may as well.
