Good point.

The question is:  what should it do?  There are three interpretations:

C-string literal ('\0'-terminated array that may have embedded '\0' bytes)
array (no sentinel terminates the array)
C-string (terminate the string at the first '\0' encountered)

I suppose the one that makes the most sense is C-string literal (which is
what the macro and your code does).

Doesn't Boost.Range have to deal with this also?
