To be honest, I was thinking about the argc==0 example here, where the argument vector allocation was real, because it was just the first part before an explicit null and the environment variable elements. In that case I don't think that the one-past-the-end situation arises, because the memory object is the whole thing and clearly not zero length. OK, I don't think that the zero-length issue is a thing, sorry.
