Comment(by asn):

 It seems to me that `base64_decode()` simply trusts `srclen` and doesn't
 assume that the input is a NUL-terminated string. I think that NUL will
 simply reach
 {{{
     unsigned char c = (unsigned char) *src;
     uint8_t v = base64_decode_table[c];
 }}}
 return `X` and `base64_decode()` will fail. I could be wrong though.

 In any case, `bug5647_cleanup` looks good to me.
