That's not it. The python code that generates the message does indeed
use "hello" so I would expect a vbin containing the bytes "hello", but
what I see is a vbin containing *the AMQP string encoding* of the
string hello - i.e. a 7 byte binary sequence with the typecode for AMQP
string + the length 5 + the bytes "hello"
