Comment(by vladimir_prus):

 Hmm, it seems that your patch will only matter if sizeof(char) != 1, and
 in that case, it will probably do the wrong thing -- that is, 'n' will be
 in chars and you will decrement 2*number_of_bytes. So, I guess the patch
 better be reverted and this issue kept closed. Apparently, nobody cares.
