Yeah, I am not sure if that's something that would really happen, but
that looks like a good practice to keep anyway to keep a clean stack
at any time.

That seems OK at quick glance.  I don't have much room to do something
about this patch this week as an effect of Golden Week and the
buildfarm effect, but I should be able to get to it next week once the
next round of minor releases is tagged.

About the fact that we may finish by printing unfinished UTF-8
sequences, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts.  Now, the information
provided about the partial byte sequences can be also useful for
debugging on top of having the error code, no?
