Ah, sorry, I was assuming the integer-overflow patch
(for bug#9874).  That patch indeed changes 'size'
to ptrdiff_t.  Any changes for immediate strings
should assume that this patch has been applied.
I haven't applied that patch only because the trunk
has been frozen against big changes since God
knows when.
