    substr(destination, source, offset, length)
    copies length bytes from source+offset to destination, stopping
    early if a NUL is encountered.  The difference between this and
    strncpy(destination, source+offset, length)
    is that if the offset is negative, it has the same effect as 0,
    and if it exceeds strlen(source), it has the same effect as
    strlen(source).  If either of these boundaries is hit, or if
    a NUL is encountered before length bytes have been moved, the
    value of errno will be EDOM, otherwise it is guaranteed to be 0.
    That is:
	errno == 0 <=> (0 <= offset <= strlen(source)
			&& 0 <= length && <= strlen(source)-offset)
    You may accept the sensible result produced when these boundary
    conditions are violated, or you may treat it as an error, as you
    will.  There is an algebra of sequences in which this treatment
    of boundary conditions makes sense.

    After the substring of source is moved to destination, a NUL byte
    is moved to terminate the string, and the result is a pointer to
    this NUL byte, ready to have new stuff stuck on the end.

    I suppose this should be called strsub, but I can't stick it.
