You're right, implementations may forbid #\null from appearing in
strings (page 46). I'll remove the "\0" string from the string-generator
specification.
However I still want to generate some inputs that will break code that
makes incorrect assumptions. So I think I'll replace "\0" with the
string " " (a single space).
