You realize zero in this case means the the MS API isn't correctly
requisitioning the space for a trailing NULL on the empty string?

I was going to ask if we can avoid the test for NULL and special
casing it, but apparently we would have to add the cycles to increment
the returned size by 1 (with or without a test) so the special case
looks as optimial as we can hope for.

Did you have a chance to look at the unix behavior on any variety
of unix platforms to see if there is at least a conformant subset?
At least the test will let users verify proper behavior, thank you 
for that addition as well.
