So, having a wrong return-type here, resulted in the const char *text parameter always being NULL. Not sure I understand the relation but looks strange to me... at least not very obvious.
A value struct return is actually done via a hidden pointer parameter (so the function can construct it in-place for the caller, a standard optimization), so it just shifted all the other arguments to the side, causing one of those 0's to be interpreted as the string.
