<AWT Dev> [9] Review request : 6788138 leak in Java_sun_awt_X11_XlibWrapper_getStringBytes?

[Sergey Bylokhov]

Hi, Alexander.
A few notes.
  - documentation of this method is wrong.(copypaste from XFree)
  - This two line was added by the dm, in the fix for "Fixed size 
problem in getStringBytes" in 2003. Note that the storage has "length 
+1" size. Why?
