Mmm, thinking twice about it. As Brice mentioned, this is not really
performance-critical. But since it's not performance-critical, it is
probably not a problem to just use chars here. Also, maybe we can use a
level of pointer to avoid any ABI issue when adding fields?

What do you mean by this? They really are not supposed to be the same,
as Brice explained.
