If I make this change on top of 250b3c6c:

 	return 1;
Then the problem goes away.  That seems to suggest that postlen is
being computed incorrectly, but someone more familiar with
bulitin/apply.c is going to need to look at it.
Indeed, with this, the test case detects under-counting in the
caller (the caller counts 262 bytes but the expansion consumes 273
bytes).
