Oh right, and we guarantee null termination so even if i have a \ at the end of input this will work.

I don't really like all these dependencies on having 1+ null terminations on the input as it will make it harder to safely move to a non-copying lexer in future, but i recognize this is essentially existing behavior so you don't need to change it in this patch.
