I meant for it to search in the whole string, and that is what I think
strchr does.

This test indeed will catch zero-length strings. However, iif you pass
"hello", or "k", strtoull will just parse 0 characters and return the
value 0. This test is for these cases as well, which are not
zero-length strings. I agree that it's not very clear, but I have
nothing better...
