Comment:

 Yes, this is actually the correct behaviour. We can't just pass a string,
 as it will be copied and modifications will not be reflected in the passed
 argument. A better API would handle that, but that would be backwards-
 incompatible. So megane's suggestion is the obscure, but correct, answer.

 Sorry for taking 3 years to answe. It was simply forgotten...
