That seems a funny corner case that I cannot imagine anybody relies on (the
caller would have to explicitly not pass a zero terminated string larger than
PAGE_SIZE, which is different on different arches). If someone does I think a
warning from valgrind seems somewhat justified. So just using PRE_MEM_RASCIIZ
here should be fine.
