No garantee, but I would find "interesting" that
"sizeof("1234B")==sizeof("B")".
If someday we implement some clever idea here (like the repeat counter
optimization discussed), we can simply change "sizeof("123B")" to
"sizeof("12345B")", or to "sizeof("BHBHBHBH"), etc.

I agree. I should have raised this issue in the tracker. The fact is
that I was checking the patch carefully today, when we collided
mid-air working in the same issue both of us :-). I disliked the
proposed tests at that time.
Thanks for raising the issue. I will try to be more careful.
