You don't actually need this to add an arbitrary lenth string; the
target gets to malloc this, you can use a trailing char[1] or simply
malloc sizeof(struct) + strlen (char) + 1 and point the char* right
after the struct.

If it's clearer to do it this way, though, we can go with your patch.
If you'd rather do that let me know; IIRC there were some formatting
glitches.
