Huh? How does that ensure that string_get_size put a '\0' at the right
spot? We do need the comparison to also cover the terminating '\0' in
exp_result.

[It would be nice if we could assert at compile-time that
strlen(exp_result) < sizeof(buf).]

<bikeshed>Could we pretty-please use different names for 0 the pointer
and 0 the character, say in this case nul or NUL or '\0' or simply
0. Also, I don't see the value of the comment; that line is a totally
standard idiom.</bikeshed>.

Good idea.
