Thanks for debugging and cleaning up my mess. The patch is correct, and I have one or two small improvements in the wording. How about the following: According to its name, the test is designed for UTF-16-LE-BOM. However, possibly due to copy&paste oversight, it was using UTF-32. While the test succeeds (extra \000\000 are interpreted as NUL), I myself had an unrelated problem which caused the test to fail. When analyzing the failure I was quite puzzled by the fact that the test is obviously bugged.
