If only part of the buffer is written into stdout by stdout_callback, the buffer_index variable is increased by the number of written bytes, buffer_length variable is decreased while the allocated buffer size remains the same. That suggests that the current allocated size is calculated as (buffer_index + buffer_length). However the current stream_read_callback implementation writes new data to the start of the buffer and allocates too little space, so that (buffer + buffer_index + buffer_length - 1) could actully point outside of the allocated buffer.
