> Exceptions::fthrow uses a 1024 byte buffer to format the incoming exception message string, but this may not be large enough, leading to truncation. However, we should ensure we truncate to a valid UTF8 sequence.

> Testing:
>  - new gtest exercises the truncation code with the different possibilities for bad truncation
>  - tiers 1-3 sanity testing

> Thanks.

David Holmes has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional commit since the last revision:

  Fix logic to allow for the buffer being partially filled.
