Right, that looks fine.  I've been debating whether we should allow
arbitrary size strings, but I think it's reasonable to cap the size.
If you're doing a protocol where a string my exceed the protocol buffer
size you should be using mmap buffers instead.  The protocol was not
designed for bulk data transfer.
