I'm happy with either way. The more I think about modifying the signatures and
using Brane's way, the more I like it: the conversion function's implementation
and interface will both be simpler, and it will also be conveniently usable on
a single string just by passing the address of a string pointer as "argv" and 1
for "argc".
