Taking a look at the 2.0 source code from the sleuthkit repo, we can see
a small issue with that version:

It looks like it uses PASCAL-style prefix-length strings to store patterns, 
which
prevents to use patterns larger than 256 bytes.  Why on earth not using a
struct to keep the size in an explicit field !?
