+ * Both Win32 and POSIX APIs return strings as zero length buffers.  Although
+ * std::string provides an easy method to obtain a read-only pointer to a zero

+ * there is no way to tell OS calls to write into a std::string directly -- a

+ * unnecessarily inefficient, specially considering that these strings would
+ * ultimately passed back to the OS, which would again expect zero-terminated
