Can you add a snapshot test for this, too?

Sorry, can you also do the thing where the snapshot test is added first before the fix, then updated along with the fix? Thanks!

mainleaks memory ofargs#649.I opted to store the final strings as
Vec<u8>rather than asCString, because the latter does not have a way to get a mutable pointer/reference without leaking it. This is because of the nul termination invariant thatCStringmust uphold.
