Note the difference between the embedded NULs in the string and the trailing 
NUL that QString appends. This means the string can end in two NULs if you do 
the following:

	QString str = QString::fromLatin1("Apple", 6);
	size() == 6

Also, a NUL is missing if you do the following:

	QString str1 = "Apples";
	QString str2 = QString::fromRawData(str1.data(), 5);
