Why keep the variable l when it is just a synonym for the new
parameter buflen? It is quite confusing that you change some but not
all occurrences of l to buflen. If you want to make the diff minimal
but still have a descriptive parameter name, just keep the 'size_t l =
buflen;' assignment and don't otherwise refer to buflen. But I think
it's better to eliminate 'l' and just change everything to
buflen. Don't mix the two approaches, though.
