[PATCH 2/4] winex11: Avoid inefficiency and overflow in remove_startup_notification.

[Vincent Povirk]

It seems like you're doing two unrelated things here? I'd expect the
process of building the string to send and sending it to be
independent.

Your use of == instead of > or >= in these checks makes me
uncomfortable. Given that a single iteration can increment pos twice,
why can't we have a situation where (pos > sizeof(message) - 3),
inside the if statement?

As for the memset, I didn't examine that as thoroughly, but it's a
good policy to not send uninitialized data over the wire. Still, we
could move the memset outside the loop and know that won't happen.
