Hello,
There is a bug in H5LTdtype_to_text (version 1.8.11, anyway). If a user
buffer is passed in along with the length the function does not truncate
at the end of the buffer, but may walk off the end of the user buffer.
The problem is in realloc_and_append which does not check the size of
the buffer before concatenating.
One could also view this as a documentation error, as the document says
the the function will truncate the string.
