Hi,

I found that evbuffer_search_range fails when you try search the lastbyte with a non null end pointer.

You can work around this by checking the buffer length and callingevbuffer_search() instead, or evbuffer_search_range with a null endpointer.


I don't know how to fix it yet, but I added a failing test case :-)




Regards,
Nir
