Other than just stupid bug, I know. It was just hard to find.
Luckily, I have test cases for internal functions. This is separate
program, that I can valgrind (me hugs valgrind).
Valgrind showed me that there is branch based on not initialized
value. So I thought, maybe also length isn't initialized there, and I
was right.
So, here's a tip from me: if your type has variable length, create
separate function to locate all memory, and to fill out all fields.
In my case it was possible, and helped.

Where is about docs, yes, I do plan to put out some tut based on my
experiences. I will definitely give it to you guys to review here.

Thanks.
