Hello, I wonder if this commit (introduced in 0.5.10) is what fixed the failure of test-buffer.js in later versions:
https://github.com/joyent/node/commit/6a72e525202972fe5d5a89cc94f48071380c1aa7 I have no armel build system but would appreciate if someone could humour me by trying this :) I came across this when I noticed there are different offsets shown for the two buffers test-buffer.js compares: original buffer: > "5684":252,"5685":0,"5686":98,"5687":0,"5688":101,"5689":0,"5690":114,"5691":0,"5692":0, > "5693":252,"5694":0,"5695":98,"5696":0,"5697":101,"5698":0,"5699":114,"5700":0,"5701":4, > > "offset":5693} copy-constructed buffer: > "5684":252,"5685":0,"5686":98,"5687":0,"5688":101,"5689":0,"5690":114,"5691":0,"5692":0, > "5693":252,"5694":0,"5695":98,"5696":0,"5697":101,"5698":0,"5699":114,"5700":0,"5701":4, > > "offset":5685} So I wondered if this was due to only one byte being read or written -- stopping because of the null character -- that would leave the offset short of where it should be, which is incidentally 1 byte into a different copy of the string (and that is maybe what we were seeing).
