Ah, good catch. I think in the first one it doesn't matter:

> -printf "%s%s\n" "0079" "45"
> +printf "%s%s" "0079" "45"

because we have a too-short packet, so the fact that it is 3 bytes and
not 2 does not change that.

I agree it's clearer without the newline, though. I wonder if:

  printf "0079" "fewer than 0x79 bytes"

would make it even more self-documenting. :)

This one is a behavior improvement: we were probably hitting "oops,
newline isn't a valid line-length character" before, and now we're
really hitting the truncated packet.

I don't know if it's worth adding an extra test with a bogus
line-length. I'm OK with with it either way.
