I think this commit didn't get reviewed because nobody understood what
this meant. If tests started failing, why adjust the results to reflect
*older* behaviour (presumably "before that change"?)

Or do you mean that commit 3a551bfd adjusted trace() to work like it
historically did, but one test was missed and needs correspondingly
adjusting?

(the trailing NUL, presumably.)
