I don't like the dynamic typing going on in this patch altogether, but
with the above statically allocated strings, I think this patch should
not go in in its current form.
I'm not enthusiastic about the dynamic typing either, but the
const char * return value is relatively easilly fixable, just need to
strdup() the value and change the API to char * and document that
the return value should be freed.
Would you still be against with such a change ?
